: About Me

I was born in the small town of Liverpool, Nova Scotia which is located on the near southern end of the province. As young child I developed an early love of reading, writing, and storytelling. It was imperative that someone read me a story every single night and from there my imagination took off. I still enjoy a good Robert Munsch or Dr. Seuss book and if I ever were to write a children's piece, they would be my personal guidances. I also enjoy L.M Montgomery and W.O Mitchell as well as the horror works of Stephen King. Montgomery and Mitchell are known for their childhood stories such as, 'Jake and the Kid' and 'Anne of Green gables'. I hope in the near future that my novel will be sitting on the shelves of book stores in Canada.

I don't have much life experience that you would call exciting when it comes to writing about life issues but I like to take a stab at it. I was fairly interested in Science Fiction and I wrote a Sci-Fi short story for my Canadian Literature class. Despite it's jumble of time warps that proved to be more than confusing I enjoyed every moment of it.

I also enjoy other pieces of writing called fanfiction. This is the idea of stories written based on a television show. While it is still a challenge to write, it is easier in the way that the characters and settings have already been set for the writers. Some examples would be the books based on 'The X-Files' or 'Star trek Voyager'. This is where I began but I do believe I am ready to go off on my own.

2 of 5

A cruise to an exotic location is perhaps one of the most exciting adventures that one could ever hope to embark upon. With that being said, cruise industries push the idea of creating long lasting and wonderful memories for travelers to reflect upon. It is truly undesirable to return with a rather humiliating and disastrous experience since it is common to hold a very long term grudge against negative outcomes. Everyone cruises to enjoy themselves in some form or other. Despite the common idea that the cruise industry is relatively a safe venue to explore different cultures, it is imperat...
