I definitely am glad to be a part of something as revolutionary and encouraging as Helium. I am a college student at Liberty University majoring in Computer Management Information systems.
I have written several short stories since adolescence(so you know most of them were depressing stories and hopeless romantic fluff), I also write some fiction twists, as well as blog posts to inspire and entertain at www.sozintara.blogspot.com. Anyway, for anyone who doesn't know me, I am an avid reader. It is a drug to me. It's a shame to read over a hundred books in a year. It is reading which has inspired me to create worlds. I have taken creative writing courses and have enjoyed them immensely, taking information and feedback from people. So I welcome all to reading my personal and informative pieces.
My goal is to combine my growing knowledge and experience with technology/business with the power of journalism and provide sound information to the public. As far as creative writing goes, I will continue to weave stories to excite the mind and bring tingles to the toes...(?)

The show airs on Nickelodeon and I now see why my father was tuned in at nights to watching Avatar. I didn't know what it was and did not understand it. The fact that it was on Nickelodeon surprised me because this cartoon felt like my beloved anime I enjoy so much.
I am an adult, yet I have always enjoyed animations like SpongeBob Squarepants, Tom and Jerry cartoons, and adventure Japanese animations like Inuyasha.
