Author has written 22 stories for Historical, General, Sci-Fi, Fantasy, Nature, General, Love, Essay, Life, and Fantasy.

Oh also... Out in the Darkness (a line borrowed from the song "Stars" from the musical Les Miserables) is a new version of The Cards. Out in the Darkness and The Cards used to be separate stories, but I think the ideas may be easily combined into one. They'd fill in eachother's plotholes... I think... Either way,it's going to be tough for me to do, sothat 'constructive criticism' stuff that teachers are always on about would be much appreciated.

Well thanks to my creative writing teacher, I've begun to live life recklessly, that is to say, attempt to write poetry. Input would help!

::thinks:: I love the middle ages, reading, writing, playing jail...ect. If you think my writing is good, read Sabrina Clarke's or Fiona Chan's!

**Ok also, my story Atlantis kind of a lot stinks. I haven't worked on it in a LONG time (since 8th grade...and i'm in 11th now!)same with the girl who never cried and the dragon. (tho those 2 r finished) i dont really intend 2 finish atlantis, so don't wait around. i'll write something new instead. i have a few ideas that have been floating around...check back soon for updates!

*** 'Preview Channel', from my Fragments of Writing thing has become an independent story. So it may sound familiar... but I've added new stuff, so read on!

**** 'Preview Channel' has become 'Sociological Imagination'. By the way, it's FINISHED, totally 100! and it's a little out there, so I'm really looking for comments/reactions/etc.

As far as that story goes, I took a lot from real life. I decided I'd like to say thank you to a few people, namely Fiona, Zaojean, my Sociology class, Chuck Palahniuk,the choir concert, Sabrina Clarke, and Franz Kafka... I think that's it.

*****Uploaded some new things, all of them quite old, but 'better late than never' right?

******June 4th

"Gesso" is a substance used by artists to cover over a piece of artwork so that canvas can be reused for a new painting.

The poem "You Wake" cannot be posted without giving credit to Mr. W.H. Auden. It was inspired by his "As I Walked Out One Evening", which is quite an excellent piece of work.

Also, "You Wake" and "Gesso" both have formatting that I think is somewhat important to the poems, so if you're interested, write me, and I'll send you the Word file so you can see the pieces as they were intended.

Often I write before falling asleep. They're just random bits of things, so every 'chapter' is completely different.

Not sure what I was thinking when I wrote this... I think it's about someone who's had their heart broken? It's kind of strange; you have to read it to see.

21. Atlantis » reviews
Atlantis-a mystery shrouded by fiction. Does it exist? No proof can be found, so now it is simply a thing of interest, with as much proof for it as against. There are many similar legends-especially the Bermuda Triangle. Might there b a connection?
