| Despair Embodied |
Author has written 19 stories for Life, General, Love, Family, Song, and Biography. I'm a dreamer, no politer way to put it. The real world, for me, is a harsh one. One that I have trouble dealing with. This is reflected in most of my work. Most of my work has subliminals, hidden meanings that you will find if you read between the lines. As for me, I can be a bit morbid, but I'm generally a good guy. I am what you see when you look into my eyes. Nothing more. So, more about me. Well, I go for the goth/grunge image but refuse to label myself in any way. I'm just me. I relate to most people through music (bit of a music nut), faves including: Evanescence, Finger Eleven, Lacuna Coil, Chilis, Static-X, MuDvAyNe and the list goes on. Real name is Stuart but I'm better known as Rayne, I eat food, drink liquid, strain when I crap and laugh when nothing is funny. So there. In a nutshell, that's me. As to "Why am I so goddamn morbid and obsessed with darkness", this is best summed up in five words: Dark For Fear Of Failure. And that's all the info ur gettin'! So begone and lose yourself in my weird world of weird-worldlyness. P.s. Big up to the best five-piece female alternative punk band in Essex, Trash Monroe. They're unsigned so any record labels reading this, TAKE NOTE! Visit the website at www.trashmonroe.com P.p.s. Just a quick note to thanks everyone for the reviews and support. Keep 'em comin'! -Despair Embodied 2004. | |||||
