I suppose you could describe me as a relatively simple individual. I don't ask for much, I don't demand much, and I don't necessarily say much. However, storytelling is an art I pride myself in, and you may hear me speak more words in a single story than you will hear me say at any other moment in time.

I believe that all stories are deeper than they appear. Each word that an author writes should be well crafted, and have a meaning far deeper than even the most intellectual reader can comprehend. The words must be so deep, in fact, that they reach to the very bottom of the writers soul, and encapsulate a meaning that only one person can understand, that one person being the very writer who wrote them. This is what makes writing such an art; the fact that a four letter word can hold enough meaning to fill a book is an art worth sharing and an art worth honoring.

I strive to write in a such a way as to bring forth an emotion strong enough to reverberate throughout the very being that reads it. I want the emotion I try to convey to pierce the reader, instilling such an intense empathy that they not only understand the tone of the piece, but that they FEEL it themselves.

Writing is an art that is hard to master, but, as self-proclaimed writers, I feel it is something we must all strive hard to achieve.
