A Word About Me

I can tell you that my head is a strange place to be. Countless thoughts of just about the most random things you can imagine come and go relentlessly. Some of these ideas are grand, some are trivial, most are fairly odd. When an idea excites me, I try to craft it into some sort of story. Sometimes this is successful, sometimes it isn't.

I have no real indication of whether or not the stories I post here will be successful in your eyes. David Mitchell, who I would consider my foremost idol in terms of authors said in an interview "Writing is a strange business transaction, which occurs largely between the imaginations of complete strangers who will stay complete strangers, but I enjoyed writing the book a lot and if it brought any of your readers a bit of pleasure then, well, great." That is exactly how I feel. I enjoy writing what I write, and I don't know who is going to end up reading my writing, but I sincerely hope that if you do somehow end up encountering some of my work, you enjoy what you read. Feel free to leave comments as well, after all, this is a blog and I'm a big boy. Seriously though, any input would be much appreciated. Thank you and enjoy.
