: About Me

Greetings to all of my fans and curiosity-seekers... you have definitely found somebody that could be a curiosity. My name is JJ and I am a writer/artist married to an artist/photographer named Miranda whom I met in Yahoo!'s 'Art Chat' Chat Room (yes, sometimes online relationships really work). That is us at our wedding in 2005 (rennaisance-themed wedding).

I enjoy reading & writing fantasy-based stories, so this forum should be a 'horse of a different color'. I am a big football fan, a lifelong Cheesehead, so my religion is the Green Bay Packers (just a joke, don't worry).   Also, I enjoy writing computer programs, especially games, in my free time.  Thank goodness for my time at the University of Phoenix... because, I AM A PHOENIX!  Now, with my Bachelor's Degree in hand, maybe I can find that dream job... any takers?

Between my life, my wife, my 2 precocious cats (Precious the Psychotic Siamese & Shonee the Fat Tabby), my Helium, my Career Search, my art, and my crafts, there is little time for me to do anything else.  Hopefully I'll be able to find more time when I'm making a ton of money in the Game Programming field.  Next stop, a second Bachelor's Degree, then a Master's Degree, and perhaps a Doctorate.  Who knows?  Life happens, and if you don't have a Harem to do things for you, then you need to just take care of it yourself.

That's all that I can really think up at the moment. Please return every once in awhile for updates (I probably won't update too often, but I'll update it when something interesting happens.

My passion is ...

my artwork and my writing.

I know too much about ...

My childhood ambition ...

was to become a well-known author of fantasy stories.

My favorite memory ...

Why I write ...

is to give the joy of my mind to others.

What I am reading/watching/listening to ...

is Heroes and almost any fantasy-based material.

My first job ...

was at a large-scale Botanical Nursery.

My best moment ...

was when I got married.

My inspiration ...

is my wife.

"Ahhh, yet another glorious snowstorm," Joey whispered, hoping to hear the fantastic words heard across the radio declaring a snow day.  He held his breath and pushed away from the window, but here there would be school.  He sighed and slipped on his boots and tromped through the living room. "What's wrong, honey?" asked his mother, Trudy.  "You seem so sad.  You know you can't always have a snow day every day that it snows." "Well, at least I could have one every now and again.  If only I could make it snow, then I'd never have to go back to school." "And what wou...
