| Alpha de la Omega |
Author has written 115 stories for Horror, Humor, Song, Fantasy, War, Religion, Life, Politics, Love, General, General, Haiku, Family, Romance, Humor, and Sci-Fi. Hello. Welcome to my world of weirdness. I write about many things so I don't usually post just under one category. I used the screen name "Alpha de la Omega" because the one I wanted to use (Legion) was taken. It is a made up compilation meaning "First of the Last". It has no real significance other than I thought it sounded interesting when I thought of it. My real name is Jim. I have also been called Stephen, Desmond Tristam, Jimmy Franklin, and James Fontenot. I am known as Legion on a few forums around the internet and took the name from the main character of my first concept album/epic poem that I wrote (which shall be posted on this site as well) that ties in with Legion of the Bible. I grew up in Texas, but now reside a bit further north. All my stuff has been copyrighted due to all the bands (none famous yet) I have written for and played with in the past. It was starting to become a hassle of who had what, so I copyrighted them in case of plagiarism. If anyone is interested in using some of the songs, let me know. We'll work something out. Hope you enjoy my stuff. | |||||||
