About Me


I'm a writer.
I say that because you'd think it'd be easy for me to sit here and write a few sentences about myself ... you know, who I am, what I do for a living, what my idea of fun is. But no, that seems to be the one thing I CAN'T write.
Need a 120-page screenplay? Good as done. Want me to take over a monthly comic book for a year? Sure, I can tackle that. A 20-page term paper on the linguistic propeties of Joss Whedon's work? Not only have I done that, I got a freakin' 108 on it. Game stories and various other assignments for the Daily Press? Hey, that's my bread and butter -- and while we're at it, my steak and taters.
Hell, I even wrote a 50,000 novel in 30 days. It's still not done, but the fact is -- I did it. And I plan on doing it again next November.
But a profile page for MySpace? That's my proverbial Kryptonite (and notice how there are no Qs in Kryptonite ... just like there are no Qs in ridiculous).
Anyhoo, in case you haven't figured it out by now, I write -- both for a living and for fun. I've been a high school sports writer for the Daily Press for almost two years, but I also work in the Office of Sports Information at Hampton University, writing stories for the school's athletic website and generating content for the teams' media guides. I also serve as the primary media contact for cross country and track & field.
I also write for fun ... stories, roleplays (ask me about City Limits!), screenplays, comic books ... my brain is a fountain of imagination and all sorts of really strange, inexplicable things. Honestly, it's a scary place sometimes.
I graduated from Old Dominion University in May 2006, getting my bachelors in Communications with an emphasis in Mass Media. Ya know, for that little journalism thing I've got going on.
And since I can't end one of these things -- let alone write one in the first place -- I'll just say ...
The End. I know, how unoriginal. Sue me; you won't get much.

My Interests

I'd like to meet:

Ummm...people who aren't jerks and/or idiots? Doesn't seem like too much to ask ...

I'm interested in meeting people with similar interests as me. Anyone into sports and/or broadcasting, as well as anyone willing to have an open-minded conversation about the workings of the world. All in all, I just want to meet some nice, genuine people. Tired of getting screwed over by the fake and insecure.

But if I must name off celebrities to meet ... lesse here ... already met Stan Lee ... I'd love to meet Joss Whedon, Kevin Smith, David Boreanaz (cause I think he's really cute), Eliza Dushku (cause she is teh sexy), Jason Mewes (now that he's all clean and stuff) and, just for the hell of it, Alanis Morrisette ... because I think it'd be hilarious for a Wiccan to say he's met God.

The Dark Knight review (SPOILERS WITHIN!!!)

The only downside to the hype surrounding The Dark Knight was the fact that FX, TNT and ABC Family each saw fit to spend the last two weeks showing every Batman movie made since 1989.Incessantly. Repe...

Sports Can’t Escape Life

I'm stunned and saddened by the loss of Sean Taylor earlier today. Not because I knew the Washington Redskins safety personally -- I didn't -- and not because as a Redskins fan, he was one of my favor...

Remember When ...?

Anyone else here recall a time when ESPN didn't need a legal analyst? It wasn't really that long ago; used to be I could tune into the Worldwide Leader and get all the scores, highlights and analysis ...

Fan vs. Writer: the Eternal Struggle

So the Chicago Cubs made the playoffs this year. Well, whoop-dee-f*@ing doo; has Hell frozen over yet? Oh, that's if they win the World Series, never mind. I've made my hatred for the New York Yankees...
