I've been writing since roughly I was twelve. I still look back and think of the things I wrote... and cringe. Then in my teens... yeah. So here I am old, fat and bald trying to maintain my motivation. I've always known that any fame would be between my ears and that any praise would come from well meaning family members. However, I've never written for the sake of fame or money (though either would be a neat and one). I've always written for the love of creating.
So, please enjoy what I've written. I'm still writing, but nowhere as much as I used to.
