: About Me

I am a 25 year old native of northern Minnesota. I have no wife, no children and, in turn, lead a fairly happy, stress free life. ;) I prefer to put my writing skills toward the expansion of comedy, but I have been known to occasionally come down with a case of the "serious writing fever." Thank heavens that hasn't happened lately.

My passion is ...

making people laugh.

I know too much about ...

nothing. You can never know too much.

My parents always told me ...

"live up to your potential!"

My childhood ambition ...

was to be a famous actor or writer.

My favorite memory ...

I hate to pick. Too many good memories.

Why I write ...

To make people laugh...or think...maybe both.

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

the Wyrd Sisters by Terry Pratchett. Oh Granny Weatherwax, if you were just a few years younger...

My first job ...

A cook at Hardee's. Never be a cook at Hardee's...

My best moment ...

My highschool graduation. I gave a speech in front of a huge auditorium and got wild applause. I felt like I was on top of the world.

My inspiration ...

Terry Pratchett, Douglas Adams, Lemony Snicket (aka Daniel Handler I believe...), and the reservoir of madness that lies deep within the recesses of my consciousness.

Not only does it do almost nothing new for the genre, but the one or two new things it does are done poorly. The story is the usual collection of cliches. You take on the roll of Alex Gordon, a genetic hybrid of a Crocodile Dundee and a cat (ok, so that's not too cliche). While exploring an island with ...
