Introduction	I am currently a graduate student "in between" programs. Finishing my Master's thesis on Hunter S. Thompson has taken much longer than expected, due in large part to a myriad of life changing events, both good and bad. I've also begun a Master of Fine Arts program at the University of Nebraska in July, 2009. Someday, I'd love to just write for a living, maybe teach a few workshops and ride my bike the rest of the time.
