"You can analyze. And you can write. But you should never do both at the same time.

If you try to analyze while you're writing, you'll never get anywhere.

But you can always analyze after having written"

About the Author
“Begin at the beginning," the King said, very gravely, "and go on till you come to the end: then stop."
-Alice in Wonderland (Lewis Carroll)

Please, call me Bari.

I am a third generation Texan, born in the mid-nineties and living in the house I was born and raised in with a varying assortment of relatives, four cats and a dog.

What I publish here I publish for the interest and amusement of others. My intent with my writing is to express ideas, experiment with styles and to relieve stress (usually my own), but most of all, these stories are written and published for fun.

Reviews, Author Notes and Messaging
"Dr. Vassbinder gave an hour long dissertation on the ionization of warp nacelles before he realized that the topic was supposed to be psychology."
"Why didn't anybody tell him?"
"There was no opportunity. There was no pause. He-just-kept-talking-in-one-long-incredibly-unbroken-sentence-moving-from-topic-to-topic-such-that-no-one-had-the-chance-to-interrupt-him, it was really quite hypnotic."
-Timescape (Star Trek: The Next Generation)

It is not my habit to respond to reviews, as most often the response would be a simple thank you for reviewing.

I try to keep Author's Notes (A/N) to a minimum because they break up the flow of a story, so normally I put them only at the beginning and end chapters of the story, as I feel that the reader experience is better without author's notes cluttering things up. I have received no complaints about this.

I will usually respond to messages quite happily, though I will not Beta Read for you, Role Play with you or agree to co-write a story with you. You don't need an excuse to contact me, I'm perfectly happy to social message.
