About Myself: Alright, what can i say about me?
I have every book i have ever read, even my child hood books, which i used to stay up all night reading with a flashlight under the covers. I made choices that lead me to Parting for the 4th of July on Route 101(on the beach) in Oregon, to debauchery standing at the end of Route 1 in Key west for Fantasy Fest. Also my 25 B-day, what a way to celebrate turning a 1/4 of a century. I'm 30 now living in the Midwest(guess where)taking care of my Grandfathers farm,(every building he built with his hands) I've been a waiter, bartender, construction worker, and lately a poker player, all while keeping books and pages of thoughts, ideas, concepts, snippets of conversations, and I'm starting to combine them into stories for all to enjoy.

Title article: The Call

Good descriptions, but you went a little to far with them for me. I like a little more directness with the actions; every line does not need to sound like an epic poem, especially in this short story format. I know i go overboard too, everyone does, you just need to find a balance between being descriptive and leaving some things up to the readers imagination. just my opinion.

Title article: THE BALLAD OF JOHNATHON BRANSON

Great word usage. Most here on this site don't fully understand how and why a story sometimes needs its words stretched and tweeked to produce an excellent effect on mood setting and character creation.

Title article: Falling
Date: 2008-10-14 21:27:24

A true poem, to my eyes, that pierces through the layers of what people can see to lay bare emotions. Tiny pixels laid out to make me see and feel a small moment of your world and life.

Title article: Cold December
Date: 2008-10-14 21:22:13

The subject matter is a dark melancholy but i see you bringing color from within. I see the black despair from the start that subtly changes shades to midnight blue. Slowly, like the sun rising, the blue changes to the shade of sky, to reveal a world of blue ice, waiting for warmth to grace its surface once more.

The fulfillment of words can be moving and powerful. I remember the first words planted like seeds, and like a skillful gardener of lines, you grew them into a beautiful tree flowering with images and emotions.

Title article: Going Up
Date: 2008-10-06 20:06:22

My actual first attempt at a novella. 12 chapters for 12 famous people, Simon Peter is the first chapter, this short was a conceptual first chap draft.

Title article: Through This Mirror

Wow. Really, took me to a different view of you. You've grown, hit a higher level, now you simply just have to do it again. ;p 
I still like the other one better, barely, so i guess you did it again

Title article: The Photograph
Date: 2008-10-06 19:36:50

This is why no photographs hang on my wall. Also why i rarely say good bye, simply "see you later", as i am a wanderer of life. Friends come and go and may return as my feet find their path.

Title article: hostage

beautiful flow of notions of love and apathy. Life goes on long after love fades and becomes a ritualistic habit of simply not wanting to be alone. Yet we all are alone in the end.

Title article: Reflection
Date: 2008-10-06 19:26:05

The best part about the whole thing, in truth if you look at it, you need not god to feel that way. It is simply an honest, goodly, understanding way to live life.
