I am a writer and artist originally from Long Island, New York. A love of storytelling was engendered in me at a very young age. I was challenged by my mother to make up the ending of stories that she started. I wrote my first “book” at age five. It began a creative drive that followed me through adulthood. I've always made writing a part of my life, whether it was my involvement with my high school literary magazine, creating my own web comic, maintaining a blog, or self-publishing my stories.

Science fiction, fantasy, and mythology hold a great interest to me. These genres question the boundaries of possibility and impossibility. Things that can never be, come to life. Whole universes can be dreamt in lines of print. From those impossibili ...more

Being billed as a master in her field she was having a hard time getting it to come out right. The vase kept collapsing. Exasperated that she wasn't able to work on camera, she threw the clay out and sighed "It doesn't want to be a pot today." Creativity doesn't always work when you want it to. When I start to get fluster I just tell myself "Your book doesn't want to be a pot today."
With all manner of pent up creative energy I try to funnel it into physical activity. When I run or swim I'm alone my thoughts. Having to balance the characters and plot points in my mind while coordinating the exercise helps me filter out what doesn't work, and sometimes come up with new ideas.
So when the frustration of it not wanting to be a pot gets in the way of the creative flow, I sweat it out and come back to it. (less)

I know many creative people who struggle to find a an outlet for all that energy. What's amazing about writing is that it isn't just an outlet. Its a way to create worlds, universes and beyond, and all it asks for is a pen, paper, and time.(less)
