ABOUT ME

Picture, if you wouldn’t mind humoring me, a sepia toned landscape of flat decaying corn stalks that come up short against a swirling gray sky. In front of it, a farmhouse with peeling white paint, overgrown flower beds, and sprawling green hills. Outside the only signs of life are dead trees that dot the grounds, but inside, there is a boy -me in case you’re wondering - who is a time-travelling, space exploring, adventurer who has seen the far reaches of the universe and conquered epic monsters. How? I read! From an early age, my desperation to escape the silent Midwestern plains drew me to a dust covered library where I discovered life in the yellowing pages of my great-grandmother’s books. Swashbuckling swords, Victorian ghosts, and mournful romantic heroines were my constant companions. Together, they taught me the value of a great story and the importance of a limitless imagination.
