Nope.

I was an “egg head” who got ostracized for being “too smart” and I retreated to the art department for the last year and half, after finishing my required courses early.

A little, spooky weirdo who spent most of her time creating bizarre photographs in the dark room.

So, really, I’ve not changed much.

:D

Poe is good. I do like his poems, memorized “The Raven”, and “Annabelle Lee”. Other than the “Cask of Amontillado” I prefer his poems to his short stories.

I discovered Bradbury I. 6th grade. I found a copy of “R is for Rocket”, and spent that summer in the library, reading everything by him.

Never a fan of Lovecraft, but his short story “Cool Air” is phenomenal

Had a double major in English, but I was able to do a lot with it.

Salamander, I meant to post this thread and hit the hay soon after...lol. That didn’t quite work out, but it has been **incredibly** fun staying up and chatting with you. Hope you have a great rest of your day...
