I stumbled across this website and thought it was a wonderful outlet.
I've finished school and got a big boy job but always wanted to be a writer because I thought i had some good ideas for novels. But i understood the risk and i was never a big risk taker. So when i found this website i felt like this was a good way to release my stories and help take away that "what if" sensation i always had.

Because I was extremely into writing I had several works performed.

I had a screen play used in a full length student film entitled: "SCAR"

It was story of a man trying to deal with the lost of his girlfriend that he lost the battle with, in which he drank himself into the paranormal. He then was thought to murder several people only to be confronted by himself and saved by a ghost from his past.

I also had two stage plays that i wrote performed.

One was a student play called "Ajax; the Forgotten Tragic Hero."

It was a story of Ajax from Greek Mythology and Homer's tales. In which Ajax arrives in Hades confronted by Hades himself to confront those he killed in battle and Odysseus who is his arch nemesis who drove Ajax mad to the point he killed himself. It was done poorly by the student director and wasn't casted right. But it was still popular.

The other was performed semi-professionally by playhouse group called; "Do you Remember Me?"

It was a story of man who had moved on from a previous relationship and was happy and about to get engaged to his new girlfriend only to be confronted by a very pregnant ex girlfriend who tries to convince everyone that he was the father. It was a story about how dumb people are when it comes to love and relationships. It was a comedy and was written about in the local paper reviewed and everything. It was my 15 mins of fame. And it actually sold out 2 weekends in a row.

I always wanted to get back into writing but never really had the time or the guts i should say to take stab at it professionally. I always did playwriting which is my favorite, but I've since shown heavy interest in writing novels, even though i'm not very good at it. Play writing seems to be my strong point because i write like i talk and don't give great imagitre.

I just didn't know this was going to be a website so dedicated to Twilight and Harry Potter...

Oh well, I live in Southern California and would love to read new material where people are serious or semi-serious writers. So if you have something to read i would love to read and tell you what i think. I will give comments on ways to improve it thou, please don't take it as negative. I really am just trying to help. I would also love to hear what you thought of my work. I won't get mad if you tell me it sucked... i promise
