Introduction | If there is a type of job to be done, I've probably done it. From the ivory towers of government to cleaning the toilets of the wealthy, from skilled crafts to driving a cab, food service, retail, clothing and digging ditches, I have done it all, although most of my career involved printing and publishing. The wonderful thing about my life is its diversity, and how every bit of it mattered and all fit together like pieces of a puzzle, and how many classes of people and other creatures it has allowed me to interact with. I speak enough Spanish to get by, adore people of various cultures and have royal ancestry. My lineage is documented on one side to the fifth century, and I have studied comparative religion in depth. I have had experiences that people would tend to discount if I were to ever write my autobiography, but every bit of it is true. |
