| Cicero Williams |
Author has written 29 stories for Life, Humor, General, Play, Mystery, Friendship, Nature, General, School, Fantasy, Love, Humor, Essay, and Biography. Hey all, Cicero Williams here. My pen name comes from a character in a play that I wanted to write since freshman year, and now I finally wrote it! I used to hate writing. Seriously. The thought of sitting at a computer keyboard for any other purpose than to play a computer game used to horrify me. Now, however, I do enjoy writing. I also love to read. When it comes to literature, I like Sci-Fi (Ender's Game, Speaker for the Dead, i robot), Humor (Dave Barry Is Not Taking This Sitting Down, The Hitchiker's Guide to the Galaxy, Fatherhood), mystery (Poirot, Mrs. Murphy, Dirk Gently), fantasy (Harry Potter, Magic Street, Weird Times at Pius XI High School) and techno-thrillers (Jurassic Park, Prey, Timeline). I do read some fanfiction, but most of it is by my friends. I have actually written some fanfiction, it's on fanfiction dot net, and I go by the same pen name. It's not much, but hey, it's what I've got. Besides reading and writing, Music is my life. Music is my business. Music is my boyfriend. Music is my girlfriend. Basically, I love music. I am a musician, a composer, and an enthusiastic listener. I am ecclectic in my tastes. I am graduating this year (or perhaps I have already graduated, depending on when you read this). I will be going to college in the fall, at a university on the other side of the state. I will miss all those I am leaving behind, but I look forward to new experiences. Hey, and if you like my stuff, review it! If you think I could have done something better, you can review that too! I definitely need some help with the ending of my latest play, The Life and Times of Cicero Williams. | |||||||
