Biography
Always enjoyed writing, since childhood. Was an only child, so boredom took over most times when the homework was done and classwork was over, so basically started putting down my feelings on paper and carried on from there. Writing has developed over the years as so many different things, it's taken me through the roughest of times, saddest of times and most wonderful of times, but has always remained inspirational to me and those I share it with. At this stage in my life, my writing has become more of a therapeutic type of endeavor, as I deal with having lost my son some years ago and having bailed out of a very abusive and negative relationship which offered me nothing but pains and aggravations that soon turned into doctor visits due to depression and anxiety issues. Now I stand a better man and in a much better environment, with alot of the negative issues behind me and trying to cope everyday with my huge loss, but with the help of my writing, feeling a bit less helpless and often a bit more empowered, within words that carry me. I love writing, having a bit of trouble with writer's block for the moment, but I'm sure it will clear up, as it always has, in the past.
