| Introduction | I'm an independent visual & performing artist, writer and scholar (and part-time teacher) in my particular regions of inquiry & personal expertise, and I have multiple literary works currently in progress - some of them long-ripening sagas I've been evolving since my highschool years - as well as running an eclectic array of online communities, ranging from high-level freeform text roleplaying to intensive pastlife exploration. I'm a creator, not a conformist - an original, not an imitator - and if my creativity seems to be all over the place, that's because its essential mission is to be multifoliate, profuse and ubiquitous. Welcome to my realm. |
