About me

Gender Male
Occupation Direct Support Professional at a Psychological Residential Treatment Facility
Location Kansas, United States
Introduction I'm a Fantasy/Sci-Fi author/storyteller; cynical optimist; who voraciously consumes knowledge and stories, then spews the contents of my mind at anyone I can convince to listen to me. I read and think far too much. (Yes, this is possible) I greatly enjoy studying people, trying to figure out what makes them tick, and then what makes groups of them tick. I especially enjoy studying relationships with their infinite possibilities of complexity.

You've successfully slain the dragon! How will you toast your marshmallows?

Over the still burning henchmen who fell in the battle. Also over the bard I was probably playing.
