 Iritegud's Biography
Gender:Male
Birthday:December 29 1946
Location:Fort Worth, Texas
About Me:Single, although I was married for nearly half my life to a variety of lovely ladies. Wrote and sold over 100 short stories, poems and essays in the mid to late 90s. Declining health and eyesight have kept me from participating in writing, reading and reviewing since 2005. I'm basically a couch potato these days.
Type of Writer:Primarily short fiction of any genre.
Writing Style:Readable. I consider myself more of a storyteller than a true writer. Puncuation and grammar are secondary. Forgive me.
Interests:I'm a watcher. I watch my son play softball and bowl. I watch WAY too much television. I watch my wrinkles deepen and multiply in the mirror every day, and I watch my savings dwindle. Don't ever think you have enough to last the rest of your life!
Favorite Genres:Horror, mystery, sci-fi and action.
Favorite Books:Stranger in a Strange Land. Lolita Stephen King's early novels.
Favorite Authors:Asimov, King, Koontz, John Sanford, James Patterson, early Clive Cussler and anything by Robert Heinlein.
Favorite Poets:Me.
Favorite Quote:Tempus Edax Rerum. - Time the destroyer of all things. Ovid
Favorite Music:Golden oldies.
