    Greetings, fellow humans!

    Well, there it is. Greetings!

    I suppose this is where I talk about myself? Sure, why not?

    I've been writing since I was five years old, though back then I dictated my stories to my mother, who typed them for me. It's nearly thirteen years later now and I still enjoy writing, and I'd like to think I've gotten better at it (though some may disagree.).
    I generally do not think very highly of my own works. Nothing is ever perfect enough for me, sadly. But that doesn't mean that if someone genuinely likes what I wrote I'll think they're insane. I will probably be briefly stunned, but eventually think that perhaps it really was somewhat decent. Somewhat.
    I have noticed, in my writing, three particular styles/themes, and they are in direct connection to my mood at the time that I wrote the piece. My works are generally fairly short (they'll last as long as the mood). In any case, here they are:
    1. Depressing - I'll generally write these when I am - you guessed it - depressed or saddened by something. They often discuss existential or philosophical themes. Many times they involve suicide as well, or at least some form of death.
    2. Maniacally violent - I honestly don't know where these come from. I'll write them when I'm angry, but they are very few and far between. Even when I'm angry I'm more likely to write a depressing tale than a violent one. They are sometimes in the form of zany short film scripts as well.
    3. Wild, random, and zany comedies - You should be able to guess that I write these when I'm in pleasant moods. There isn't much else to say about them.
    I also write movie scripts and I really enjoy writing *some* essays, one of which I will probably post sometime in the future.

    Dear me, I seem to have gone and lost myself in self absorption. I apologize ever so humbly..

    Hello and welcome to you.
    Remember why you like to read, and inundate your writing with your love of story. No great writer ever found reading a chore.
