Author has written 62 stories for Love, Friendship, General, Humor, Life, War, Fantasy, Sci-Fi, Religion, Politics, and Family.

Ok, a little bit about me, I am 20, I work at a pizza place (which is fun, but smelly... sometimes) I drive a car, that is sky blue and very throaty on the throttle (yes, guess... I won't tell you. HINT: It is small and Hatchbacky) And best of all, I am LDS. I've been writing ever since I could hold a pen (I think) the poetry came about 3 1/2years ago.

Some things I've learned about life... people will not suspect things, unless you tell them to, nor will they assume that you are sane unless you make youself look insane... Nobody will care about you, unless you care about them... Good things come to people who are humble... Music is awesome... Emotion is too strong to keep bottled up, we all need a release, drugs, crime and sex are not good ones... Love is a great thing, don't underestimate it... Man will never understand his full potential...

If you love poetry, deep writing and other things such as this, goto , they are a great site, some of my stuff is there too. You might enjoy it!

I write what comes to my heart, whatever it may be. I try to stay true to myself and my God.

I enjoy reading all types of Fansaty and Science fiction, and most poetry.
Currently reading: The Wheel of Time, book 10, 'Crossraods of Twilight'; The book of Psalms; the book of Mosiah and 'Not My Will, But Thine' by Neal A. Maxwell.

My favorite Poets: Robert Frost, William Blake, Javan, Edgar Allan Poe, W. B. Yeats, and countless others, you should see my bookshelf.
My favorite Authors: Robert Jordan, All the wirtters from the New Jedi Series, Terry Pratchett, J. R. R. Tolkien, Whoever writes the dictionary.

I love music, all too much. A few examples: Ours, The Get Up Kids, Dax Johnson, Jason Mraz, Alien Ant Farm, John Mayer, Coldplay, The LOTR soundtracks, Royksopp, Finger Eleven, Placebo, Chevelle, Cake, Maroon 5, Metallica, Radiohead, Bjork, Red Hot Chilie Peppers, Nickel Creek, Snt. Germain, Norah Jones, the list could go on for a VERY long time... but just to give you an example... and it is in no way organized... I like them all the same... except for Ours, they are the best.

An updated design of my situation

I am sorry for not posting anything on here in such a long time. I have been working on getting my Mission Papers in. I have, as of today, the 3rd of July, submitted my papers to my bishop. I will be leaving on my mission in around 3 months.
