About Me
Well, my name is Mike and I'm 23. I graduated college a few months ago and right now I'm struggling to get into a MFA program. I like writing a bunch of things but right now I want to work on my graphic novel. I love workshop and I love real constructive critiques and honesty. So if you hate something I write, tell me and maybe I can make it better. And I love read requests and I always try to return the reviews I get.
Some books I've read recently and loved:
Soon I will Become Invincible by Austin Grossman ( Reaaal good super hero novel )
No One Belongs Here More Than You by Miranda July ( good book of short stories, check out her movie "Me You And Everyone we know" as well, excellent flick )
Self Help by Lorrie Moore ( the book that got me reading again, no kidding )
I also love comic books more than like anything in the world and some of my favorites are:
Powers by Brian Michael Bendis ( awesome realistic take on super heroes )
Y: The Last Man by Brian K. Vaughan ( Vaughan just rocks. )
100 Bullets by Brian Azzarello ( I think that's how you spell his last name. Just a good gritty crime book. )
Short Comings ( depressing, and engrossing--about one Chinese American's struggle with race and dating )
Runaways by Brian K. Vaughan ( maybe the best thing by Vaughan, about teenage super heroes that run away from their evil parents )
Spider-Man by Everyone (Because I love him and he taught me how to read in 3rd grade. Now look at me! )
