: About Me

I am a 40 year old male living on the east coast of Florida. I spend the majority of my time fixing up the 60 year old house that I live in and surfing the net.

I occasionally watch television but there hasn't been a lot of good screen writing to be found there in years. As a science fiction fan, my most recent favorite show was Heroes. The first season was intriguing. Season 2, or maybe its 1.5, didn't quite live up to my expectations though.

With the rest of my time, I try to run a small business and some charity work here and there.

Some jobs were corporate and some were small business. The common theme amongst all of them were that they were all dream jobs.

I only have one left for now. Radio Talk show host. Any one have any ideas?

My passion is ...

creating dialogue.

I know too much about ...

too many things that I don't know nearly enough about.

My parents always told me ...

I could be President. (I think they were serious.)

My childhood ambition ...

to learn as much as I could about as many things as possible.

My favorite memory ...

is riding my bike 5 miles to the library during the summer.

Why I write ...

to pursue my passion.

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

I am not sure but its on.

My first job ...

mowing 2 acres with a push mover.

My best moment ...

has been each time I brought to fruition one of my dream jobs.

My inspiration ...

my mother. She was her own person even when it wasn't cool.

Children are growing up too fast. How many times have we heard that statement in the last few decades? We try to place the blame on music, or video games, the increased flow of information or television. And while I am sure that any one or all of these things are contributing factors, the sad reality is we as parents and adults are part of the problem as well.
