At the beginning of my first grade year at school, when I wrote "How I Spent My Summer Vacation on Mars" I knew I was destined to be a travel writer.

Some twenty years later, I'm not.

Mostly, I'm just an opinionated wanderer. I wander through cities, through museums, through bookstore, and through life. I have been fortunate enough to wander in and out of some amazing places, and have seen some wonderful things.

I read every book I can get my hands on, and watch every film with careful scrutiny. I know how many ridges on a dime, and how many licks to the center of a Tootsie-pop. And, as god as my witness, I'll never go hungry again.

I write fiction. I draw a cartoon strip. I am taller than a Keebler elf. I give my unsolicited opinion to anyone with a pause in their conversation. I drive very fast. I can bend a wooden pencil. Superman ain't got nothing on me.
