| Introduction | I am a writer, English teacher, reader, lover of poignant films. I am interested in making the world a better place, because it is tough. My writing opens up dark parts of ourselves to show what it is that moves us and what is facade. At least that's the hope. If that doesn't work, then I'll just have a chase scene and explosions. |
| Interests | Reading, writing, coffee, that's about it. |
| Favorite Movies | Anything by Ridley Scott. Any movie with Russians, submarines and Alec Baldwin. Actually anything with Alec Baldwin, as long as it has "30 Rock" in the title. Amelie, Chocolat, Pride & Prejudice. Not Titanic, not Forgetting Sarah Marshall, Not Harold & Kumar's Anything, and no movie with Jennifer Aniston (sorry girl, you were great in Friends). |
| Favorite Music | Josh Garrels, MercyMe, Coldplay, U2, anything by Harry Slevcove. Not Kanye, not Gaga, not Slipknot. |
| Favorite Books | Bird By Bird, Gatsby, Galapagos, Civil Disobedience, Beowulf, The Art of Fiction, My First Summer In The Sierra by John Muir, Bruelleschi's Dome. In The Heart of the Heart of the Country and Ecclesiasticus and Ecclesiastes, both are great works, philosophically, poetically and spiritually. |
Why is there something and not nothing?
