: About Me

I'm opinionate, sometimes blunt, and I'm ok with that. I'm not above being brutally honest, and expressing to the full extent of what is going on in my head.
I love writing, and find it to be the most beautiful of expressions. I am influenced by the beat generation more than anything and it comes out in my writing style. I'm a vicious critic, and I expect the same critisism back so long as it is with intentions of helping me become a better writer.
Professionallly I am a photographer. I work in the music scene mainly, and I've worked with several big name bands. Although, I try to focus my energy on local talents that need a leg up.
I am 3rd generation in the states. My family is from Ireland, and I take my roots seriously. I am very close to my great grandmother, who grew up in Ireland and came to the states in the late 20's. I have learned many things from her, and she is by far the wisest person I know. I'm a proud Irish, and don't take kindly to people who think being Irish is a cool fad.
Anything else about me will most likely come out in my writing, so just stay tuned.

I've always been a night person. Maybe it's because the day doesn't have anything to offer to me. Not everyone can be satisfied with the warm rays of the sun singeing the outer layers of skin, and the sun has always had a draining effect on my mind and body. The night is when I live to the fullest, and I came to terms with that a long time ago. Every summer I used to go on vacation to Panama City with my step father and company. They always had planned events for the family, and they were drab to me to say the least. Miniature golf, and swimming in the ocean were never things I really got ...
