Author has written 25 stories for Sci-Fi, Fantasy, Mystery, Nature, Humor, General, Horror, General, Western, Thriller, and Fantasy.

A little about myself:

Well, I'm not one for talking about myself much, as you know if you have had the fortune (or miusfortune as it might be) to stumble and crawl along this profile or the one over at FFN sometime over the past year or so. Well, I figured it was time to put something up for those that might be wondering what I like and what I enjoy writing (as if you can't guess from just reading a little).

Below is just a short list of what I like, what I don't, and what I write.

Likes:
Fact based stories - Fiction or non-fiction
Mystery - Sherlock Holmes, etc. I have the good fortune to have all of the Holmes cannon stories. IMO, Jeremy Brett is THE Sherlock Holmes.
Science Fiction - and science fact, of course (Would that be sci-fact or sci-fa or what?)
Action and Horror - Noting more need be said
(and a thanks to)
Michael Crichton - Inspired me to start writing (Jurassic Park being prehaps my favorite novel)
Stephen King - Inspires me to be as weird as I want with my stories
Isaac Asimov - The science-fiction master, hands down - Inspires my sci-fi hand
Anumati - For writing two of the best stories I have ever read
Anyone who writes stories that inspire me

Dislikes:
Just read Meaningless Bullshit. I'm sure I'll add to it as time goes by.

Music:
Metallica
(some others in no particular order)
Static-X
Offspring
Motorhead
Beach Boys
Collective Soul
NIN

Well, there are other things (some I can't think of, and some I just haven't said), but I shall get to them later.

Now for a Stephen King saying:
For what's right, thank them
For what's wrong, blame me

This goes to whoever helps me with my stories. Be it a bum, Bill Gates, or the President.

A long overdue update, I'm sure. Yes, I'm still around. I updated Dinosaur.

August 27, 2005:

Thought of the moment: Is it still a mental home if you're mentally home?

At any rate, I'm still here. And so are you, aparently. Don't you have a homepage to go to, or something? My profile can't be that interesting. Of course, you might have skipped down here. Like Little Red Riding Hood.

October 18, 2004:

Unveiling the first chapter of Fiction. A quite different take on writing from a writer's and character's point of view. "Is it real or is it Fiction?" You'll have to wait and see. Give me feedback and I'll write faster.

October 6, 2004:

Just letting you know that I'm not dead yet. I just want to finish up a couple of stories before I post any more of them.

August 17, 2004:

Added a profile, for those that actually read this page. Also posted a poem: The Beast Within. This is part of a story I am working on, albeit not as hard as Electric Genesis and several others. Maybe I can get my ass in gear and finish a couple of stories. It wouldn't be so hard if I didn't play so many damn games. But like hamburgers, I love them.
