About me? Oh boy where to start.
Ah yes, perhaps the beginning. Never liked reading while in school, to me at the time I memorized books. Everything was about committing things to memorization than enjoyment of the book. In fact I was never taught phonics in school. Oh wait I'm jumping too far ahead. I've been through 14 schools, and moved across the country. So if I had been to one school all my life, I might have had a more complete education. Instead I get tidbits here and there. So my education really began after school and on my own, discovering things that the schools never taught me.
Ok where was I? Ah yes, no phonics. It wasn't until the end of grade 11 that my mom asked me if I 'visualized' the books I read. As if I play a movie in my head about what I'm reading. I didn't understand. In fact it took me another year to apply this, instead of simple memorization. Also before that, my French marks were usually higher than my English. So by the time this new found ability to read and play a movie in my head only came into play near to the end of Grade 12 English. My teacher hated me, but once applied this ability I started to soar ever higher.
After school, I decided to spend some of my extra time writing. My first book is an atrocity to my education. I'll never publish it. I kept working on it for three years, and never to my satisfaction. I started a journal of my ideas, stories and day to day activities, even a few confessions. It began 2005, and this year I'm celebrating my millionth word.
I take part in a few text based RPG's which has extended my capabilities as a writer. I also do a lot of activities, like hunting, fishing, horseback riding, and usually camping is part of those. I've tried my hand at metallurgy, and a few other crafts. I do archery, and knee-boarding. Do you have any idea how difficult it is to knee-board and take pictures? I have interests in science and technology, and the list goes on.
Thank you for your time
