CURRENT MISSION

To stay creative. I'm under Aries and this is means be impulsive!

ABOUT ME

Let's see. I'm a burgeoning writer - and still happily finding my feet. I'd like to say I'm intelligent and driven by my interests; street-smart to a point - still no balls 4 tattoos etc. Can't define myself too well in this way. But how boring would that make me? Dunno. But in a nut, I'm a vivacious thinker and learner, and good conversation with artistic, like-minded souls is my thing.

PHILOSOPHY

I find that my life becomes clearer to me, a bit more everyday. It shows me how complex people are, and enriches me when I learn how different people think and act and feel. There's no philosophy other than my own. I would like to avoid a life of irony or solipsism. Keep things simple. There's one. Be ambitious. There's one more.

Interests

When you have such a good cappuccino that it becomes a sin not to spoon out the foam around the rim - with a finger. ;) Visits to art galleries in foreign places; Thinking about the world when everything was black & white; Playing keyboards with the book upside down. But seriously, I write and want to write better and more often - I don't see it as fiction and non-fiction (past or present) but as one person's take on the world that governs them.

Music, Movies, and Books

Poetry - Beefheart is magic, Bukowski at night... aww

Drawing/Painting (Anyone dude who can really USE colour, I'm envious... abstract yes, dada no.

Movies: Man on the Moon, The Pool, Heart of Darkness, Boogie Nights, The Big Lebowski, Salo [NOT], The Conformist, The Wog Boy, Round Midnight, Kontroll, Stalker, Dog Day Afternoon - that'll do

I keep it light and I keep it heavy with reading, just like my sleep-overs as a kid when me and 5 other recent pubescent boys would watch a bad horror followed by a worse comedy... Right now it's Ben Elton (Stark) and Cormac McCarthy (The Road) btw
