Hey, welcome to my profile. I suppose you're hear to investigate, eh? Well, I have nothing to hide. I am me. And who is me? Not sure if that's a question I can answer. Not to say that I don't know who I am...It's more that I can really only show you who I am, and that would involve a lot of time and events and, well...life. So...settling for this quick blurp-of-text-profile idea, I shall begin.

First, you can probably guess that I write stuff now and again. And if you don't know what kind of 'stuff' I am talking about then you should really check out my stories. And you'll soon realize that 'stuff' isn't quite the best description; you'll probably develop a whole pile of your own opinions and descriptions. And this means that you're all ready to comment on my work. And so you do. Fantastic. And I respond. And then you add your own story.

But here is my description. Or rather, my story.

Writing is a passion of mine. And so I write all the time, and about everything, and in plenty of different styles. It is an artform and skill and way of life that is constantly growing on me. Or rather, I'm growing with it. I am continually experimenting, inventing new ideas, designing new plots, new characters, and new worlds--and why should I ever settle?--I'm having too much fun.

So let me talk now about something that will eventually settle into place. My novel. My novel has been with me for more than two years now, and it has grown as I have grown. The plot has become so deep and epic that it makes me excited just to think about it. I have put myself into this novel, my beliefs, ideas, opinions, curiosities, joys...everything. The purpose of the novel is to inspire the reader to think and to act. The novel is for social change. It speaks of original thought, living in the moment, rising to challenges, living for what you believe, finding your own purpose and philosophies, and persisting through every hardship. It is an adventure involving a man who has no past. And he lives in a world of war, terror, and killing. And he knows that it is wrong. And he knows that he does not belong. And so he decides that he could not have come to life only to play the role of a mere participant. No, he is here to change the world, and to stop the war. That is his quest.

And so...you can see that I, as the author, am in over my head. And that's the fun. Seeya round,
