Hmm...Where to start?
I started writing actively when I was in third and fourth grade, and obsessively in fifth. This is probably due to the fact that my Dad, the loving intellectual that he is, was reading Frost, Keats, Eliot, et cetera aloud to me since I can remember. After a while, I decided that the written word was so magical to me, I just had to experiemnt with it on my own. Thus a few poems and short stories were produced, which evolved into the hundreds of pages I have today (not all noteworthy, but some are reasonable.)
Typically, I write long-ish, rhythmic/often rhyming poetry (i.e. the field of William Carlos Williams is something beyond me). I enjoy reading everything in print and out of it, and I like volunteering for things. Hobbies include music (piano and voice), rock climbing, debate, politics, philiosophy, literature, swimming, psychology, and religion.
I'm looking forward to geeting to know everyone. :)
