I'm a Hollyweird-based professional creative writer and performer whose most beneficial contribution to the field was the Show-and-Tell Method of audio-based scriptwriting in the early naughts. Until I (hopefully!) 'make it big' I pay the bills as a psychotherapist with a focus on the alternative lifestyles and freelance editor. I'm also the artistic director for Envision Dramatic Artists and the creator of The 8th Square series along with two unpublished trilogies, four other short stories, several novellas and audio scripts, and a handful of successful collaborative past ventures, such as the Lachesis Falling RPG. (The fourth novel of The 8th Square series titled 'Hunting Alice' has been adapted into an audio drama and will begin streaming episodically 27 January 2012 on a hosted site). I made the permanent dive into the transgressive genre, in which I now write pretty exclusively, around '01. I've been known to occasionally write some SF, urban fantasy, and (as prior mentioned) run a collaborative journal-style roleplaying game here and there. They say there is no originality left in the world. While I'd like to prove them wrong, I can't do it alone. In all honesty, I get an unparalleled enthusiasm when I receive word from someone who has recently stumbled onto my work. That acknowledgement is what drives me, even now. Writing is a collaborative process; a communication between two parties, author and audience. I love knowing that my transmission is being received, and tend to respond in kind. Best of luck to all who wield the pen as mightier than any sword.
