Author has written 8 stories for Haiku, Nature, Love, Fantasy, Biography, and Life. So. Álo. Bear with me. Most of my work on here is old, so some of it is quite arguably completely crappy, but... I'm also very proud of some of them. Please be as critical as possible in your reviews. And if you review something of mine, I promise to review a work of yours (if you have an account here) with the same detail you offered me. As school...is a pain in the ass, it might take me as long as a month or so to review you back, but I promise I'll get to it. Favorite book of late: American Gods. Neil Gaiman. Read it. My favorite authors are Chuck Palahniuk, Amy Hempel, and Roger Zelazny. I dream of writing something that combines their styles. And a couple quotes, just because collecting them is fun: "'No one tells me better stories,' he assured me. I was aware of the point at which a compliment becomes a trap, because you are expected to keep doing the thing you are praised for; resentment will follow when you stop."
"...I’ve come to believe errors, especially written errors, are often the only markers left by a solitary life: to sacrifice them is to lose the angles of personality, the riddle of a soul."
