Writing (check out some samples here), movies, music, comic books, pop culture in general, attempting to be Mr. Handyman around the house, trying not to waste time (though I tend to be a master at the art of Time Suckage), and...well, I could go on...

About me: Guy nearing the end of his twenties, a set of years that have had their ups and downs but in all, have been good to me. I'm awaiting the publication of my first novel, "Under the Bridge," through Lucy Rose Publishing. I'm hard at work on new stories and hope to have new stuff to share soon.
I have a great wife and family. My day job is good (I consider writing a night job). Hoping to add a greyhound to the family next year. Hoping to get out of credit card debt (or at least alleviate it). Hoping for that better tomorrow we all strive for, though today's not so bad either, except for the fact that I wasn't expecting the Spanish Inquisition.
that's awesome. i wish you all the best. let me know when you get it done and where to buy. it must be in the water. (did u know i self published a poetry book last year?) i'm in the edits of my first novel right now - which i actually wrote ten years ago. and i'm simutaneously working on another book.
good to hear from you old friend!! yes, that is on my list if i can still squeeze it in before the oscars, along with slumdog and milk. i've wanted to see frost nixon for a long time. i saw the reader last night...it was awesome. what are you working on these days?
eh so-so. I've been hella busy lately. And yesterday I found a dog. She's staying with a friend of mine for a week. If no one claims her its off to the Woman's Humane Society. She's very sweet so I'm not too worried. Anyway what's goin' on with you macheezmo? What's the word?
