Books
I read everything in our house growing up including Kurt Vonnegut, then I read alot of Friedrich Nietzsche, and William Gibson I also then started to read more and more, Philip K. Dick, T.S. Eliot, Dante, Neal Stephenson, Hunter S. Thompson, Alex Burgess, H.P. Lovecraft and many others ; they in turn influenced me greatly and made me who I am today. Books help stimulate the mind and creativity.

About me: "I was an artist before I was born. I was driven and lashed onward by powerful forces outside myself. There was no other path, and no matter how hard I might have tried to find one, I would have been forced back again."
