| Introduction | I'm an American born and raised in Europe. I have one degree in English and one in Songwriting: neither one will make me rich. I got married young, which they say can be a bad thing to do but I don't know what they're so worked up about. I'm a recovering fundamentalist, which means I believe in all the stuff from the Apostle's Creed but don't usually bite. I'm also in a couple of bands: Star Called Sun (www.starcalledsun.com) and LYRE (www.lyre.tv). |
