| Lee's ghost re-born |
Author has written 30 stories for Action, Sci-Fi, Historical, Biography, Play, Love, War, Life, General, Romance, and Essay. Hi Readers: With the New Year I felt my profile needed changes, I don’t really do much on here anymore other than bug a few old friends and most of my attention has shifted to working on my novel. That said I am 21 and a University History student. My two passions are: the American Civil War (I am a Confederate Re-enactor) and 20th century Irish History. For all my love of history, and I have gazed down the historian’s path, I am a writer at heart; my love of history seems there more and more to just spur my muses (although not always!) More than anything, I love a good story, the kind that is well-written enough to immerse you in the world that was crafted and you have no escape until it’s over. To me, that’s true literature, not themes and symbols like English teachers would have you believe. Since I like a good story and a good review seems to be a rarity these days, I will review anything you ask, as long as you return it. Some random facts: -I have blond hair but wish I had red -My favorite color is blue -My favorite fiction authors are Bernard Cornwell (http://www.bernardcornwell.net/) Morgan Llywelyn (http://www.completist.com/) -Authors I despise The woman who wrote Twilight, and Jeff Sahara -My biggest literary influences are those listed above, C. S. Forester, John Steinbeck, W.B. Yeats -My favorite bands in order of obsession :O) are The Elders (an amazing Irish rock band out of Kansas City, Mo. Amazing musicians, better people! (http://www.eldersmusic.com/) (The) Dave Matthews Band (Dave's lyrics are a constant muse in my poetry) ( http://www.davematthewsband.com/) David Rovics (A leftist songwriter and poet who has been a major source of muse and personal help. I don't ascribe to all his views as no one ever should ever have their thinking done for them by a man with a microphone or tv program, but his songs of history and peace have always inspired me. (http://davidrovics.com/) Harry chapin (has lead to quite a few poems) Iron & And Wine (http://www.ironandwine.com/) Barenaked Ladies (http://barenakedladies.com/home) The Tallest Man On Earth (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Tallest_Man_on_Earth) Carbon Leaf (http://www.carbonleaf.com/indexb.html) Neil Young (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Neil_Young) -If I had a time-machine I would go back to 1992 as a 20 year old and see DMB play as a bar band, see a Harry Chapin concert -I named my plant Robert (Led Zeppelin joke) MY goals in life: -Finish my novel this summer (then work on the nightmare of trying to be published D:) Then finish the sires. -Someday get a book of poems published -Be a battlefield tour guide In Virginia -Convince my future wife to let our wedding dance be, "I'll Back You Up" by DMB (Yes, sometimes guys think about that stuff, only ones who have a soul. We are rare, never let us go, :P) -Find a woman to marry to make above go down lol -Retire to Dublin -Name a child Sqeaky (Because I'm evil >;)) -Be fluent in Gaeilge -Meet my FP friend Sissi and go on a hot air-balloon tour of the world. -Buy a sword cane -Discover where the HELL all my socks go -Laugh when Justin Bieber's voice changes -Be remembered a as a fun and loving guy Anything else you like to know just ask. Cheers, Lee/Weasel/Adam | |||||||
