Greetings, friends! If you're actually reading this it means you probably want to hear from/about me, so I'll tell you a little about myself: General Me: I'm in my early twenties and I'm an English Education major at Liberty University in Lynchburg, Virginia. I really enjoy writing, but sometimes the responsibilities of college inhibit me from doing so nearly as much as I'd like to. I have several stories and story ideas that have, unfortunately, been put on hold indefinitely. But still, if you see any story or poem below that seems to catch your fancy, please read and review--I always like hearing from fellow writers. My writings range from random silliness to action-packed sci-fi and fantasy to matters of my Christian faith or something else close to my heart. My Beliefs: I am a nondenominational Christian and I am seriously committed to my faith, but I try to couple it with intellect as well and test everything I do or believe against the standard of reason. I believe that man is lost and broken without the hope and salvation that can only come from Jesus Christ. I live by the standard of the Bible and I am not afraid or ashamed to talk about anything I believe with anyone who may have questions, curiosities, or criticisms. My faith influences much of what I write, whether overtly or subtly. Objects that have earned my fandom: Science fiction and fantasy, superheroes, Star Wars, The Lord of the Rings (and other works by J.R.R. Tolkien), The Chronicles of Narnia (and other works by C.S. Lewis), most Marvel superheroes (especially Spider-Man), most DC superheroes (especially Batman), various other comic books and graphic novels, the writings of Ted Dekker, the works of Shakespeare, and various other pieces of classic literature.
