Hello, welcome to my A-Little-Bit-About-Me space.

I am generally a happy person and I really, really enjoy making people laugh. This is not always reflected in my writing, but it often is.

I post a new writing exercise/prompt every day on my Daily Writing Practice blog (linked below), please feel welcome to drop by and share your take on the day's topic.

Things I listen to while I'm writing or looking for inspiration:

• Mos Def
• Flight of the Conchords
• Def Poetry Jam
• Matt Costa
  
• Buena Vista Social Club
  
• Jack Johnson
  
• Lupe Fiasco

These are the (far too many) stories I'm attempting to contribute to at the moment:

• My first solo project for this site. Please do give A Fighting Chance a gander and let me know what you think.
• Eloo's Orphan Rescue Project. I'm attempting to add to one 'orphan' story each month - this month's Orphan is Child Eyes by FogCat.
  
• Tagged - a collaboration between myself, Bill Hartzia, Dark Liquid, Cheshire Grin and Archi Teuthis. I'm really enjoying the whole experience.
• West Moves East - my other solo story, inspired by a very vivid dream.
• Thank You For Encouraging My Lunacy - a crazy collaboration with g2.
• How The Best Was Won - a western(!) with Bill Hartzia and Gabriel.
• They Will Not Break Me - a prison story that will hopefully at some point become an escape story with g2 and Chazpez.

Silly stories that I've started that could always use new collaborators:

• Diary Entries From The Crew Of The Pirate Ship The Pink Daffodil - not just a ridiculously long title! Come be a poor excuse of a pirate.
• Davy and Joe - more complete nonsense. You'll have to read a chapter or two to understand.
• The worst love poem ever written - could that be more self-explanatory?

And, last but certainly not least, some of my favorite stories (in alphabetical order) on Protagonize:

• Agoraphobia by 'Zade
• Drop Point started by Amos1143
• In The Psychiatrist's Chair started by Bill Hartzia
• Nowhere Home by Seldom
• Outsmart started by Rac7hel
• Paddytum by Tasha
• The Universal Truth started by Smac
• Twi't also started by Smac
• Waking Up With Henry also by Tasha

I'm technically on Facebook but I hardly ever go on there. Which is surprising given how fond I am of procrastinating. I'm mysterious like that.

I suppose I should include a link if I want anyone to actually send me a friend request. So... here:
