I wasn't always a writer. Before I got into UH, I was a criminal justice major at a local community college, before that an electrician in Maine, and before that I played football, basketball, and ran track in high school in Louisiana, and wanted to play professionally; and on, and on. I was a waiter, worked in a video store, was a data entry clerk, and have gotten electrocuted much more than once.
This is what I listen to when I write. My favorite song is "Wolves" by Jesu.
I'm good at most video games (except Halo) and am getting pretty good at the drums in Guitar Hero: World Tour.
My top 10 favorite writers/stories by them are:
1) David Marusek ("The Wedding Album”)
2) Orson Scott Card (Ender’s Game)
3) Tony Daniel ("A Dry, Quiet War”)
4) Stuart Dybek ("We Didn’t”)
5) Greg Bear ("Blood Music”)
6) Charles Stross (Accelerando)
7) Cormac McCarthy (The Crossing)
8 ) John Scalzi (Old Man’s War)
9) T.S. Eliot ("The Hollow Men”)
10) Cory Doctorow ("Printcrime”)

SilentMoonDance : Hey... on February 16I was just listening to some of your music and it sounds really good. How do you put the music player on your page, if you don't mind my asking? Do you have to be goldmember?
