''The future belongs to those who believe in the beauty of their dreams.
--Eleanor Roosevelt ''

8/7/2004 - My Haiku ''Storm'' is finally being published (in an anthology). I'm pretty excited about that. One little step at a time...

My humble line on Poetry (would explain why some of it is so ... wierd) : I prefer poetry which deals with images rather than emotion. Rather, I let the photographic images of my memory speak for themselves. I don;t try and force an emotion. I find Haikus to be the perfect medium for this...thanks...emmm...nothing more to say...except...wOOt!

To those to you who are wondering what kind of madman (or gentleman - depending on the criticizm) reviewed your work : Please take the time to return the favor, it really helps.

I also love writing very simple Haikus. No flashy stuff.

Personal details: I currently live in Rome with my cat Nikki. My long term ambitions involve writing full-time. I'm 23 years old!

Loves writing personal profiles in the royal third person.
Occupation - Student.
Favorite Author - D.Gemell.
