| Bio: | I began life as a child. Voracious reading parents, especially a mother with more articles published than I care to count, and an award-winning speechwriter said I would never be lonely as long as I had a good book. I soon found good books were far more interesting than most of my friends, until I discovered girls really are different! I've lived all over the country: Ski-bummed in VT; studied music in Boston, went to Los Angeles to be a rock 'n roll star, but then had to pay the rent. Like, what's up with that? So I was a door-to-door salesman, sold cars, advertising, telemarketed; worked oil fields in Texas; wrote grant and financing proposals in Pennsylvania; hung out in Hawaii. Was a staff writer for a now defunct magazine in New York, contract technical writer--software manuals and other very boring stuff. Was in the mortgage business in CT. On reflection, I realized I've spent a life pursuing the meaningless, though the journey did compile warehouses packed with multiple lifetimes of experience. Now, here I am, on a beach in FL, finally pursuing something of meaning and worth, and doing what I always knew I was born to do, but other stuff, like life, had to get out of the way first. Thank you very much. ever want to contact me direct? jaames530 at yahoo dot com |
