"A word to the wise is infuriating."
-Hunter S. Thompson

I am an English major at the University of Texas at Austin. I've always been interested in writing- or, if I am to be completely accurate, I've always known that it's what I want to do with my life- but up until the launch of PartyCampus I've only been interested in writing fiction. Now, however, with the passing of my hero, the masterful Hunter S. Thompson, I've turned my interests towards journalism, with the (perhaps naive) idea that maybe I can make some kind of a difference. If you take a shine to my writing, please leave a comment here and there. I'd appreciate it, and hell- while we're at it, I'm sure the other writers here would like that too.

Aside from writing, I also enjoy reading whatever I can get my hands on, taking roadtrips, debauchery, hedonism, and any other creative endeavor I can immerse myself in. My favorite writers are Hunter S. Thompson, Stephen King, Frank Herbert, and Kurt Vonnegut; the three finest bands in the history of music are Led Zeppelin, Creedence Clearwater Revival, and Queen. Balls to you if you disagree.

One last note- check out www.glassbottled.com if you want to read some poetry I've written, and if you want to read any of my fiction, well- you'll have to wait til I get some of it published.

How fitting that his idol would be someone the likes of Thompson. I see great things in this punk's future.

From that website:

" My favorite writers are Hunter S. Thompson, Stephen King, Frank Herbert, and Kurt Vonnegut; the three finest bands in the history of music are Led Zeppelin, Creedence Clearwater Revival, and Queen."

Don't think much of this guy's taste in writers...but hard to argue with his rock picks.
