About me

"In the measurement of things, there is a great irony often overlooked. It's a childish desire, the childish desire for good." ~ A Danger to Society

I am a writer. I was once in the Marine Corps and I was once a teacher. But, over and above anything else I can be or have ever been, I am a father. My love for my daughter runs deeper than anything else I can imagine. She kicks my butt daily with her cute things and her smart things, sometimes it's both at the same time.

I've been to Italy and I've been to France. I've been to Australia and everywhere else in between. But, the place I hold above anywhere else on earth is in Virginia. Imagine that! We always just want to go home.

Recently, I was approached by a producer who wanted me to write a screenplay.  It's a thriller about a neglected kid who finds a friend in a stuffed animal, but is it just his imagination or is it real?  It was definitely an interesting concept and fun to write.  Once the graphics are finished, the rest of the shoot will be scheduled and I even get to do a small cameo.  So, I'm excited about this project and can't wait to see it finished.  This was my first journey into movie making which has been a life long dream.

But then, I was approached by another producer who also wanted me to write a screenplay.  An assassin falls in love with his mark's daughter.  A simple concept with a lot of direction.  I had just as much fun writing this one as the first.  But, this might take a different direction.  Something more in the realm of what they're doing with "Persons Unknown."  A series of productions that equal one entire story.  Whichever direction this project takes, I'm just going to get behind it and give it everything.

Finally, my new book is just about ready to come out once I get the right photo of the model I have lined up for a shoot.  When I have the right cover, I'll run it through one final edit and then put it out for the world to see.  But, enough about me.  What's up with you?

Arts & Humanities > Philosophical Concepts Theories of evil

I find our misunderstanding evil as those things we don't like and good being those things we do humorous. Good is everything that is pure. Evil is everything that is tainted.  Good is everything that is positive. Evil is everything that is negative. In the spiritual world, it may not be this way. We've pitted good and evil as two opposite extremes. But, I believe we are finding out that they are not so extreme. They might actually be closer to each other than they seem. The Yin and the Yang are two opposite forces that are dependent on each other. Karma and Vipaka are the action and ...
