: About Me

I am 1 of thirteen children. I grew up in a small county in eastern Ky. the largest town at that time had a population of 500 people. Everyone knew everyone in the county so you got to learn about people and their beliefs.I am a laid back person who is kind of anti-social, not a hermit but it doesn't hurt my feelings to stay at home. i like writing poetry the most and am very interested in politics; you could say I'm a CNN junkie.

My passion is ...

knowing people and what makes them tick

I know too much about ...

addictive substances

My parents always told me ...

treat others like you want to be treated

My childhood ambition ...

to be like my uncle frank stay home forever

My favorite memory ...

lying under the apple tree in my grandmothers front yard

Why I write ...

it is a release of frustations sometimes and also gets me back to reality

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

reading newspapers,watching cnn and law and order, listening to classic rock

My first job ...

i worked in a pie factory, hah,hah; really though i did i loaded trucks

My best moment ...

My inspiration ...

to be published some day, dang what an ego-maniac i am sometimes
