| Sam Loomis |
Author has written 8 stories for Essay, Historical, Young Adult, Supernatural, Love, General, and General. I'm A. Sam Loomis, captain of the dirigible Hezekiah or "the Heezy." I've been a writer since 1999. Y/A fiction is my comfort zone, but I'm amenable to poetry and trying to break out of the comfort zone to just write all the things (which is my favorite meme). I also enjoy writing research papers, radio documentaries, and copy (which is basically advertising scriptwriting). Tweet me (A_Sam_Loomis). Not sure what I'm doing anymore, but whatever it is, I'm awesome at it. Currently focusing on some darker subjects that I probably won't be able to post around here given the ratings system, but we'll see... From sunrise to sunset I try the keys: I search in the darkness for the locks and I go on opening broken doors to the ocean. -- a translation of lines from Pablo Neruda's "Plenos Poderes" | |||||||||
