About me - J. McDole
About me
I am J. McDole and I've always loved the power of words: whether spoken, written or broadcast. They can be serious, hilarious, informative, entertaining, silly, or clever but they are always important and should be treated accordingly. Just as people should never underestimate me, I never underestimate the strength of a good sentence
I like animals more than most humans because my pets seem to speak volumes without wasting words (though admittedly, my humans are better house-trained) and in the last few years I've written reviews for several magazines and websites. My keyboard skills make grown men weep - sometimes in a good way.
I can split your infinitives and sharpen my clause. And I've barely begun
Briefly me
My passion is ...
ever evolving
I know too much about ...
death
My parents always told me ...
"ain't" ain't a word
My childhood ambition ...
was to become a fortune teller
Why I write ...
because I think
What I am reading/watching/listening to ...
zombies, always zombies
My first job ...
was as a dish washer in a cafe. I lasted three weeks.
My inspiration ...
is my family, especially my recently deceased father, who wrote a book in his mid-seventies.
