Name: Derek

Note: my screen name comes from my days as a roleplay/efed; wrestler. My character was "Thug Life" Shawn Houston. SH...uglife.

I'm fairly new as a writer. I've wrote for years but really started getting serious about it lately. I used to do poems a lot in high school, but after a divorce and a child my poetry changed and i don't enjoy it like i did then. I'm a big sci-fi/fantasy/horror nut. I'm big into paranormal also. Many people say I'm gullible and beleive anything, I just have an imagination and day dream.

My first attempt at writing I did a story about vamps and werewolves with my own twist on things. It's a pretty long "story/book" It took me a few months to type. I'm terrible at editing my own work. i guess i know what i'm reading so in my head i over look mistakes easily. Currently writing a zombie story, and waiting to publish my vamp/wolf story. i also have a fanfic acount and published a few stories in the burn notice field.

outside that, enjoying the site and reading hopefully you can say the same about my stuff
