Welcome to my site. Within this site you will gain insight about me and my art. I am a writer at heart and that is what I enjoy to do. You will find a few of my poems, stories (only parts of), articles and much more as I continue to follow my dreams. I have started a Writing Correspondence course with Long Ridge Writers Group and hope that it will assist me in achieving my goals of publication some day. For those of you who know me, thank you for stopping in and checking out the site. For those of you just meeting me, please feel free to browse around. I am very open with my past, present and hopes for the future and I hope you learn much about me from my openness.

Here is a short description of each of the areas:

• In you will find more information about me. This area is set up into three sections. One is for my past, which is rather interesting on its own. One is for my love, which is alive and well, I love you Amanda. And the last one is for my now, which encompasses everything from the job I hold to what I am reading in my spare time.
• In you will gain insight on how I came to love writing. There are many things to include in this subject, yet most importantly is the places the ideas come from. I will focus a lot on the poems and short stories that I have wirten in the past ... the ones that are unfortunatly lost forever due to a crashed computer. (That will teach me to back my work up)
• In you will have the oppertunity to sample some of my works. Most of the works that you will find within the area are recent and fall into four catagories. The first is the poems catagory, this was the first way that I was regonized as a writer by my peers and I still enjoy writing them today. The second is the story catagory which will contain a new style of story telling. Check it out! The next catagory is an Articles catagory, this is something that I am only beginning to attempt so please read and then comment on them. And the last catagory is dedicated to anything that I feel is apporpriate that I write for my Course Work.
• In you will be able to communicate with me easily. You can read the comments and leave one of your own if you wish. Please keep in mind that I am moderating it, and I will not stand for abusive content.
• In you will find a list of my favorite places on the net. There will be links to the programs and websites that assisted in the creation of this website as well located in the Links area.
• In you will discover many ways to contact me through all sorts of mediums including Messenger Nicknames, Email addresses, and more.
