Author has written 13 stories for Nature, Fantasy, Life, Essay, Love, General, and Friendship. I just recently moved to Seattle with my fiance, where I'll be doing some interesting research work in psychology. In my second to last year of college, I took up writing once again due to the powerful influence of a most excellent teacher who taught the most fulfilling class I had taken- Joe Germana of Transpersonal Psychology at Virginia Tech. I realized how important the creation of art is to being a human present in the world - for me, writing is an aide that helps to seek and open the gates to magical and peak experiences. Above all, I feel these experiences lie in the realm of the natural world that we have a tendency to be closed off to. Below is a list of categories that briefly outlines influences on my writing. Metal - The genres of Viking, Power, and Doom Books/Authors - J.R.R. Tolkien; Carlos Castaneda; Zen Mind, Beginner's Mind Subjects Both Academic and Spiritual - Zen Buddhism, Transpersonal Psychology, Integrative Psychology, Positive Psychology, and Norse mythology Scandinavia - Norway and Vikings The Natural World - Mountains, Landscapes, Skyscapes, and Birds | |||||||||||
