About Me: I hate filling out these things. Summarizing myself without sounding like a egotistical twit is a thorny path indeed. But let's try anyway. I'm a lover of words, first and foremost. I'm obsessed with reading and writing. At fifteen, I wrote My First Novel and became a bonafide teenage writer. After realizing it was crap, my Mona Lisa was shoved into a drawer and thusly abandoned as I threw myself into writing something better. This is how my passion for the writing craft began. Years later I've lost the ability to use "teenage" as an adjective, yet my love for the written word still burns strongly.
