I think it is important that I now open myself up to the public on Wattpad. I have been using this publication median for about 6 years and have only shared myself through my poetry, but never gave any real evidence of my life. This is me opening myself up to my readers in hopes that you feel more connected to my writing. If this is counter productive then please tell me so, before it is too late. 

So let's begin. 

I grew up with a 17 year old father who was in a straightedge gang, a 24 year old drunk, abusive mother and all boy cousins. 

I've seen more trauma than I have ever disclosed (if you have read carefully then you will know), but it has fueled my writing. I write to live, what more can I ask for. 

I love the color mauve simply because it is dull and I don't know why. 

Sometimes I listen to punk and think about burning everything to the ground and other times I listen to Nat King Cole and cry. 

I like exercise for all the wrong reasons. 

I'm terribly fat and for what ever reason, can't help myself from being that way. 

I have had one therapist. I was sleeping about 14 hours a day and the best advice she had for me was to get more sleep. I did not go back.  

At one point in my life I had 12 dogs and now I have one and I think of that as a metaphor for how the world works. 

I did stand up comedy once, thoroughly enjoyed it but don't think I'll ever do it again. 

There's not much else to say really. Oh. And I have a thoroughly impressive theatre resume. 

If you have question's, feel free to comment.
