Nik Dendera

My name is Nik Denderatazkovich. I use Dendera for short because I'm lazy.

I'm a 27 year old cross dresser, vodka drinker, music lover, menthol cigarette smoker, insomniac, faker and Marmite lover. I believe in the Dan Ashcroft prophesy 'Rise of the Idiots'. I got stuck in the 80's after I tried to escape from modern culture. I don't believe I am better or more unique than anybody. The only person I want to be superior to is me. In fact, I have my own mantra:

"I know I am insignificant. I know my opinion is not valued. I know I am not unique. I know not all dreams come true. But I know I would rather die than give up my integrity, rather be dust than pretend to be something I'm not. All I am is me. And I am greater than I was."

My favourite past times:
Creme Eggs, Fauxhemia, fake, Trap Door, surreal, time warps, backwards, upside down, making tea, Count Duckula, drinking the aforementioned tea, Globbits, Japanese Whispers and walking in the rain.

I've recently been published in the poetry anthologies 'Cafe Musings' and 'No Apologies', both available from amazon.com. My novel, 'Love is Suicide' will be published next year and will be available from amazon.co.uk and waterstones-in store and online at waterstones.com-so watch this space!

Here's some cool quotes I like from various people and places.

"The individual has always had to struggle to keep from being overwhelmed by the tribe. If you try it, you will be lonely often, and sometimes frightened. But no price is too high to pay for the privilege of owning yourself."-Friedrich Nietzsche

"If you want to tell people the truth, make them laugh. Otherwise they'll kill you."-Oscar Wilde

"I think being different, being against the grain of society, is the greatest thing in the world."-Elijah Wood

"You cannot please all through your actions and Art... Do it right for the few."-Schiller.

"The mediocre teacher tells. The good teacher explains. The superior teacher demonstrates. The great teacher inspires."-William Arthur Ward

"Jeffery Archer on a show about lying would punch a hole through time"-Frankie Boyle

"I have no problem with religion. I respect all the world's religion. But I would say that if you believed in any of it, you are a moron. It's just like talking to your imaginary friend."-Dylan Moran

"But on this movie, a movie that had a lot of c**ts in it, it took on a whole new level. In the States, its the dirtiest word you can think of, people hate it and need a shower after you've said it. But over here in the UK, its positively embraced. Personally, I tend to use it in its typical noun form, as a term of endearment that follows a greeting, but I'm playing with it. I may yet experiment with 'c**ting' as an adjective."-Elijah Wood
