About

Around me are a pile of novels including those by Faulkner, Austen, Fitzgerald, and Shelley, a stand for my laptop, several Harry Potter page clips, Strunk Jr. and E.B. Whites The Elements of Style lays open and beating like a heart, an apple core, a cup of coffee and my journal. And despite the direction these objects afford me, I can not say for certain what I am ever doing to move forward or why. The novels teach, the coffee caffeinates, the apple core — well, decomposes.

I hold in potential a world of characterization before my very eyes and within this economical draft of an “About Me” page, I must assert I know precious little about how to go about writing on it. I know very little about this whole website-writing business at all. I consider myself an amateur using big words in opportunistic ways. And despite the resources available to me, I find the root of the matter, for a part of me wishes to give a good impression immediately, is that I can only effuse truth in my reality through the description of objects I surround myself with, the clothes I wear, and the thoughts I choose to yield as vulnerability to you. These and more can be found within the “Blog” page of this website.

Working on the Cryptids Project
Working on the Cryptids Project!

Literature, including the works of Woolf, Homer, and Morrison, is a passion which I aim to cultivate a basis of knowledge from. I am a student to the battlefield of sentences and words fought for by masters. I am a sibling, a son in a family of six. I enjoy clementines to oranges. I persist that my poetry has an effect given a scarce level of editing. I share my first drafts too often. adore verbosity and purple prose given my admonition to lacking the necessary skill at discerning which is better to have and where. This, I hope, is enough to suppose of my character a handful of assumptions, qualities, and a marginal impression of my disposition. Thank you for reading! I sincerely appreciate your attention and wish you an enjoyable stay.
