| Introduction | I am an American in love with all things British. A monarchist. A graduate student in the Classics, happily dwelling in a tower of ivory. A lover of flights of fancy and the seemingly endless expanse of space. A wizard and charlatan. A bibliophile. A husband (four years now). I love Autumn above all other seasons, and I grin at the sight of a day-moon. Purple is my favorite color, but I more often wear blue. I have a dachshund whose father was a chihuahua, and I'd gladly have more. I am an amateur author, a lover of technology, and a proponent of NASA. I am a Christian, devoted to Love, Faith, and Hope. And last, but not ever least, I am a New Yorker -- and I always will be. |
