   Skov's Blurbs
About me:
I am a writer of magical fiction and technical manuals. I abhor sweets of any kind, drink tea excessively, only have nine fingers, and am obsessed with zombies, theology, mythology, and the number four, though not in that particular order. I live with my wife, Gretchen, and my two sons, Logan and Zane, outside Washington, DC. Be sure to check out my wife's online children's clothing store at AuntArt.com. And of course, please visit my website, jonnyskov.com, which for better or worse, I design and maintain myself. I also have a blog that is not attached to myspace.
Who I'd like to meet:
Other writers who are roughly in the same stage of their career as I am that I can trade drafts, ideas, and frustrations with.

And damn, all those people I've lost touch with over the years. If there's one thing I regret in life (so far), it's that I didn't work like a maniac to keep tabs on people.

Standing on a street corner, it's a warm stormy night. With the smell of fresh green life in the air, a car stops at the light in front of me. Surrounded by the blasting melody of Rocky Raccoon pouring into the neighborhood, I'm reminded of you.

Even though we're not in touch I hope you're doing well.

FYI -Cleveland continues to be a depressing concrete jungle, but I think I've found someone here who will make it all worth wild.

Are you still in Washington or now in Maryland? I'm confused

What's up man? Have you been reading Justice? Not sure that it measures up to Kingdom Come but what does. I'm moving back to the union station building with the new old job so we can hook up for beers after work sometime.

Hi Jonny! Isn't this imaginary place weird? Since I added you as a friend a few hours ago, I've received three propositions for sex with strangers. This reminds me of that theory about how a butterfly flapping it's wings in Asia leads to the formation of a hurricane in the Gulf of Mexico. Except on a much, much, much, smaller scale.

How are you? What's new?
THE BRAD
