About the Author

I'm a little over a quarter century old - born in the 70's and a child of the 80's. Computers were still new back then, and only the true, true geeks loved them - the geeks who could live without visuals*.

In grade school, I made a goal to read every book in the county library, and I actually started a list of books that I read. For a time after that, I read somewhere between three to five books a day - each of them 100 pages or more in length*.

I also kept sketch diaries. In grade school, they were more like little comic books on spelling paper - fictional stories of characters I drew; and I gave those away to people in my class. In junior high school, they were on small wire-bound drawing pads - cartoon-like sketches of faces and people in pencil. In high school, they were hardcover books with blank pages, which I filled with comic strip renderings of things that happened to me and my friends*.

I graduated from high school, college, and university with honors, and I participated in very physical extracurricular activities*. I also worked part-time throughout my school years, starting at about age 12, when I first taught piano.

I was cute when I wanted to be, but I was shy, so I didn't start seriously dating until I was old enough to legally drink.

And now?

My "now" is a private matter, for reasons of privacy and personal safety. But feel free to visit the archives to read my previous autobiography.
