The journey

The voice

I heard her voice, familiar yet distant, but sin was holding me like bosom to a baby, keeping me safe from all that gargle. Pathetic boy,...

BIO

I'm the writer of this blog and my book. I will continue to find new ways to engage the people with the new things we have in 2016 and hopefully that works out!

I represent a caricature of everyone who wants to be different and yet have been told by our major influences that it is impossible. impossible seems to be a meme these days and i hope no one ever gets pigeonholed by these antiquated concepts and dated biases of an 'impossible' thing.
