“Literature adds to reality, it does not simply describe it. It enriches the necessary competencies that daily life requires and provides; and in this respect, it irrigates the deserts that our lives have already become.” - C.S. Lewis

People have called me, random, crazy, eccentric, shy, a hermit and just plain crazy! But who am I really? You'll have to learn that for yourself. I am now a Senior in college, where I'm majoring in English and History. Literature is my life and I plan on being a novelist/journalist/playwright and museum work. I love the Theatre and I plan on seeing as many plays in my life as I can. I love to swim and do Martial Arts (Tae Kwon Do especially) and Dance and Sing (musch to the dismay of people around me when I do it). I'm going to travel the world and see what it has to offer, and what I have to offer it. And I one day would like to become the Prince of Orange. Just to say that I am, and to live in a palace that'd be pretty boss.

I love Anime and most old school animated shows of my childhood, like Avatar: The Last Airbender, Family Guy, The Simpsons, Prince of Tennis, InuYasha, Wolf's Rain, Ronin Warriors, Rocko's Modern Life, Hey Arnold, Sailor Moon, The Venture Bros.,The Boondocks, Home Movies, American Dad!, King of the Hill, Cowboy Bebop, FLCL, Mission Hill, The Oblongs, Baby Blues, Futurama, Kikaider, Case Closed, Outlaw Star, Samurai Champloo, Tenchi Muyo!, Trigun, Voltron, Witch Hunter Robin, YuYu Hakusho, ThunderCats, Beast Wars: Transformers, ReBoot, Batman: The Animated Series, Batman Beyond, Superman: The Animated Series, Young Justice and Justice League Unlimited.

Some of my favorite genres of literature are mythology, fantasy and some science fiction. I read regular fiction, but the plot has to be really good. My favorite authors are Gregory Maguire, Donna Jo NaPoli, Lynne Ewing, John Steinbeck, Ralph Ellison, Langston Hughes, Nella Larsen, Zora Neale Hurston, Maya Angelou, Stephen King, Alice Walker and Toni Morrison.

Some of my favorite book series are Animorphs and EverWorld by K.A. Applegate. The Harry Potter book series, except for the epilogue of 'The Deathly Hallows.' The Southern Vampire Mysteries (the books that the HBO show, True Blood is based on) and most of Anne Rice's work.

I mostly write fan-fiction from Avatar: The Last Airbender, Young Justice Sailor Moon, and Disney films.

Please do comment and critique my work. The only way to improve my craft is to know what I am doing well.
