I enjoy acting, magic, music (I sing bass in a choir), and general writing. I've also been trying to read much more, as it's highly important to any developing writer.

Right now, I'm a bit confused and unsure of what I want to make my career. Regardless, I'll be happy if I can have a job that expresses creativity, whether it's writing, theater, magic, or other art I've yet to discover.

Though I'm not hugely educated in music, I do enjoy it a lot. I try to be open with my genres, but my favorites would be rock, punk, and various types of electronic and metal.

There's the best description I can think of, at least at the moment. It's nice to see a post that looks at introductions on a more detailed level. Most of the time I just see blog posts saying "I'm new. Read my stuff." It's nice to meet you.

When I was a Freshman in high school I got really into the southern metal scene. If you're interested the lead singer from Rwake did a really in-depth documentary on the entire scene called Slow Southern Steel. He interviews bands like Kylesa, Weedeater, Blacktusk, Hank III, and Phil Anselmo. It's really interesting stuff.

I've always wanted to go to Maine, it seems nice. In high school I was in Civil Air Patrol and got really involved in the Search and Rescue program, ended up going to Pennsylvania to train at Hawk Mountain, I've wanted to see the rest of the east coast ever since.
