I guess I should say a little about myself. I read and write strange, weird and twisted tales. My favorite authors are Rod Serling, Ray Bradbury, Dean Koontz, Stephen King and a host of others too many to list here. Also read a lot of non-fiction by Carl Sagan and Robert Heinlein. I am into sci-fi also. To be able to put words together to evoke thoughts, emotions or curiosity has got to be the most satisfying thing to do.
My English teacher in twelth grade tried to encourage me to continue writing, but being 17 years old, you think there are higher priorities in life. Then, when I got those priorities out of my system, life jumped in and got in the way. Now I am writing quite often and hope to get published. And if I don't then I will still write for the pure joy of it.
