Author has written 15 stories for Love, Life, Fantasy, and Haiku. *NOTE: For those of you who care or are fans of my writing...*peers off into the darkness hearing the crickets chirp*...my poem "Damned" will be published in the International Library of Poetry's annual coffee table collection of poetry. YAY!! :)I'm mean, I'm lean, I'm green, and I like pears. Hey I don't know if anyone ever reads these things, but today I figured I had been lazy long enough and now is the time in which to forge ahead with this task of profile-writing... First off, I'm a college student and *gasp* (you better sit down for this...) I'm a pre-med human biology major...(I told you...) I've been told that it is interesting that with a mind like mine (supposedly all scientific and logical :/ ) that I can and choose to write... Now that's just stupid...I was a writer long before I was a bio major and writing and creativity are just as much a part of me as the reasonable scientist...I believe in the duality of everything in life... And because of this bio major status, sometimes it's hard for me to keep up with reviews and review other people's work first...but I try...and I always review back...it just takes a little bit of time :)And I appreciate every single review I get...and my philosophy on reviewing is that I try to help the person be better if I can (and that doesn't mean that I'm trying to be mean), and if there's nothing that I find that can be better, then I tell them what I love about it. My interests...(like you really care...) umm are reading (Dean Koontz, Marion Zimmer Bradley, J.R.R. Tolkien), writing (but only for myself, no essays :P), learning (that sounds hokey but its true), movies (Dogma, Lilo and Stich..so cute!, Good Will Hunting, Almost Famous) , MUSIC (Our Lady Peace, Incubus, Evanescence, Matchbox Twenty, Fuel, 3 Doors Down...the poetry of song...I love brooding, sentimental, poetic, beautiful rock gods!!), Buffy the Vampire Slayer and Angel (my secret indulgences...I love fantasy!!), and South Park (the episodes are deep, satiric masterpieces...besides the outrageous grossness of it). I really don't have a favorite poet at this time...two of my fave poems are below. My favorite poets in this community though (and the list is ever-changing and growing) are Death's Counterfeit, Glitterjewele (my lone friend on the big college campus), and not sure yet. Check them out, their poetry is stunning (and I know good poetry...even if sometimes I can't write it...). :) Fave Quote: The Road Not Taken Two roads diverged in a yellow wood, Then took the other, as just as fair, And both that morning equally lay I shall be telling this with a sigh --Robert Frost The Tyger Tyger! Tyger! burning bright In what distant deeps or skies And what shoulder, and what art, What the hammer? what the chain? When the stars threw down their spears, Tyger! Tyger! burning bright --William Blake |
