About Me
I have always though writing was interesting, although I rarely "found the time" to do anything about it. My monotonous office job often leaves my artistic side unfulfilled. I once shared my creative impulses by telling elaborate bedtime stories to my young kids. But when they were taken far away in an unfortunate custody battle, the stories became less frequent. I started writing as a coping mechanism. It has since become something more.
Type of Writer
Casual writer. So many hobbies, sometimes writing doesn't happen for months. Although I hope that will change.
Writing Style
Whatever works for the story.
Interests
I like wood-carving, web design, jewelery-making, origami, cooking, electronic engineering, and computer games. I revolve through each in the span of a year or two, so I am novice at all of them.
Favorite Link
Writing.com, of course!
Favorite Link
Sometimes I get lost on youtube too.
Favorite Genres
Fiction. Horror, Science Fiction, Thrillers and Classics
Favorite Books
Top three: Dune (Frank Herbert), Dracula (Bram Stoker), Alice's Adventures in Wonderland (as Lewis Carroll).
Favorite Authors
Frank Herbert, Stephen King, Charles Lutwidge Dodgson (Lewis Carroll). But I like a lot of Ernest Hemingway too.
Favorite Poets
Not really into the poetry scene.
Favorite Music
Classic rock, mostly. If a song is fun or meaningful, the genre is irrelevant to me. However, after all these year I have met very few country songs I liked.
Favorite Movies
Krull (1983), Sweeney Todd: The Demon Barber of Fleet Street (2007), The Princess Bride (1987), and Pan's Labyrinth (2006)
Favorite Shows
The Big Bang Theory, House, Game of Thrones (although I am getting bored reading A Feast for Crows)
