About Me

Choose your own Shannon Smith! Shannon Smith: a) Enjoys the touch and smell polished wood. b) Is a tenor but sings in falsetto in his car. c) Facing the destruction of his home by fire would save his wife, children, cats and fish but then perish in the fire unable to decide if to next save his 89’ Stratocaster, the 77’ Star Wars poster or his comics. d) Is working on a plan to banish the demons and dragons that live in his attic, basement and that spot just below the left side of his ribcage. After the banishment, he plans to write/draw the great American graphic novel and write/record the great American rock record. But first, the demons and dragons. "This wise man observed that wealth is a tool of freedom. But the pursuit of wealth is the way to slavery."
