: About Me

Hi my name is Michael, I'm 29 and my two main passions in life are writing and taking photographs. I discovered helium as I browsed communities in search of writer's who enjoy sharing valuable insights. And I'm delighted to report, it's exactly what I've found. I'm generally happy, honest and dedicated to what I do and love to meet and hear from wonderful, talented and like minded people. I'm interested in gripping articles (as long as their honest) and do enjoy spreading the occasional pond of short story tales and poetry ink that drips from my pen. I also love to dream and contemplate.

Thank you for your vist. It's goes without saying, that it's very much appreciated. :-)

Trends come and go, reach a peak while gathering followers, then at some stage - even years down the line - lose their edge. Making new names for themselves like ancient, old, un-trendy or simply not cool. The same thought applies to economics, one day booming, the next day in recession....
