Self-protrait, made with Heromachine. For those wondering, the scroll represents my creativity, and the torch, my habit of self-destructive/degrading behavior. I'm getting better, though.

Quotes I live by:

            “The only true wisdom comes from knowing that you know nothing.”

                        --Socrates

            “Don’t offer questions, or I will retreat,

            fame is a cancer, and ego, its seed.

            And I wasn’t looking for Heaven or Hell,

            just someone to listen to stories I tell.”

                        --Toad the Wet Sprocket, “Stories I Tell”

            “A word spoken is an arrow let fly.”

                        --Thomas Fuller

            “If a man could be crossed with a cat, it would improve the man but degrade the cat.”

            “You may say a cat uses good grammar. Well, a cat does—but you let a cat get excited once; you let a cat get to pulling fur with another cat on a shed, nights, and you’ll hear grammar that will give you the lockjaw. Ignorant people think it’s the noise which fighting cats make that is so aggravating, but it ain’t so; it’s the sickening grammar they use.”

            --Samuel Langhorne Clemens, aka Mark Twain

There’s not a whole lot to tell beyond that. I generally put fragments of myself into all my characters. I tend to be over-ambitious yet phenomenally lazy, as indicated by my numerous writing projects that have yet to be either completed or begun. Hopefully this page will make a difference in that.

Thanks for the interest. Seriously.

E-Mail me just for chats and giggles.

Return to the Wereworks Main page, feeling a strong sense of self-satisfaction for indulging a fellow human being in his existence.

Head over to the RPG Main page, so you can read the same spiel again.
