About Me

I do not feel totally comfortable labeling myself a 'Writer'. Though I write, writing itself is a beast I have yet to wrangle and tame. Instead, I consider myself a 'wordsmith'. Since I'm not really an originally creative person but am rather skilled at developing and improving a pre-established foundation, I would like to offer my services as a Beta reader to those of you out there who ARE originally creative.

Credentials: I have a B.A. in Journalism and a masters in Secondary English Education.

For those who need more than this to feel confident sharing your writing, I offer this: Besides possessing a firm grasp on English mechanics, I have devoted a significant portion of both my personal and academic lives to studying stories. A film minor in college, I learned to consider all the pieces of a given story in isolation and as a whole. In fact, The Story is probably the only higher power I've ever recognized. Stories make sense where life does not because they, in my opinion, illustrate how life should operate.

I'm posting a couple of prose pieces to the site and just wanted to note for other writers that my writing is not reflective of the material I read. Generally, I prefer fiction to nonfiction and, within the fiction oeuvre, my favorite genres are Fantasy and Science Fiction. However, I'll pretty much read anything, the (mostly) exception being historical fiction, particularly anything revolving around WWII and/or the Holocaust.
