I haven't updated my profile in a while...anyway, I'm Victim of the Wraith, previously forensicscienefreak (hopefully this name will stick for a little while.) I specialize in writing mysteries and poems of various kinds. I love writing sonnets, because the structure is so classic and requires you to think about where you're going and what you would like to convey in these fourteen lines.

On the Way

At the moment I haven't had much time to write any short stories but I will continue to post poetry as it comes.

FLAMES: I do accept flames. I find that these help me especially if there is some technical detail which I have overlooked in my writing. Please don't feel bad about flaming me in fact if you pick it appart you are likely to hear from me with a review or an e-mail that says "thank you" and not "screw you."

Hope you enjoy my writing. I will pay all reviewers a visit.
