"I have of late - but wherefore I know not - lost all my mirth, forgone all custom of exercises; and, indeed, it goes so heavily with my disposition that this goodly frame--the earth, seems to me a sterile promontory; this most excellent canopy, the air, look you, this brave o'erhanging firmament, this majestical roof fretted with golden fire - why, it appears no other thing to me than a foul and pestilent congregation of vapours. What a piece of work is man. How noble in reason. How infinite in faculty. In form and moving how express and admirable. In action how like an angel. In apprehension how like a god. The beauty of the world. The paragon of animals.

And yet, to me, what is this quintessence of dust?"
-Hamlet (William Shakespeare)

Sorry for the dry spell. The site is back online. From the masses, a great big "hooray!" was raised and then they had cake and it was good.


_________2:53 PM EST-- July 4th 2005
In celebration of our Independance Day and our inalienatable right to free speech, I'm going to be renovating the site map to close out my senior year/high school writing portfolio and begin preparations for the College Freshman section. I will be attending West Virginia Wesleyan College as an English Major. I will be living in room 217 at Fleming Hall. One of my professors is a novelist-- I'll try to learn as much as I can from him. Happy 4th, everyone. Remember to do something extrordinary with your citizenal rights today.

Just got back from work, so I will be brief, for I am tired and much desire to retire. Black Pines has been revised yet again and I'm much happier with this version. I'm pretty confident about this one, folks.


_________8:24 PM EST-- Apr. 24 2005
I know, it's been a few months. I've been busy, but now I'll probably be updating more often. I'm still unsure whether tyo start posting up my chapters as I finish revising them-- whether that'll compromise their sanctity and all that. Anyway, just to have something to show for the time I've been gone, here's Black Pines, one of my only decent nonfiction pieces, though still a little dissapointing to me in its own regard. It needs revision, which I will post later on. Smell ya later.


_________7:19 PM EST-- Dec. 31 2004
Another Senior Poetry update, with three new poems.


_________7:46 PM EST-- Dec. 14 2004
Updated the Senior Poetry section with little diary-entry poetry I've been doing. It's cute, I look forward to continuing it. It's going to be a series of these titled "Dear Self". They're short and sweet. Also, sorry for the lack of updates. I'll have more time to work on my writing come next week for our winter break.


_________8:11 PM EST-- Oct. 11 2004
Updated the Short Story section with a new story/potential novel entitled "Siren's Carnival". Good shit. This is me, the overly critical starving artist, actually praising my own stuff, which doesn't happen often unless I honostly think my hippie Jesus-like muse decided to grace me with his presence for an extended period. Go read it.


_________7:21 PM EST-- Sept. 24 2004
Added on the senior section where three new poems are to be seen. I also updated the friends page. Sorry it took me so long to update this, I am just now getting over a long period of writing stagnation. That and I had to get readjusted to being at school. Enjoy.


_________9:26 AM EST-- Jun. 18 2004
Put two new poems up in the poetry section: Crow at Worchester and The Hunted Ruin. I also have some partial scripts, but I'm debating as to whether I should finish them first before putting them up here. That'd be a while, however.


_________2:03 PM EST-- May 1 2004
Okay, I really do have a reason for not updating in so long. First, I was working on my stage and screen scripts for script class, and secondly, I was finishing up My World, which was put on the site the other day, I just didn't have time to make an update announcement about it. I'll put up my scripts as I finish them.


_________9:45 PM EST-- Mar. 9 2004
Sorry boys and girls, the research paper got me a little sidetracked, so I'm back and I fixed the friends page. Not much there as of now because, well, I'm tired and after I just now finished all my 50 notecards, I seriously don't feel like thinking that hard. When I get my script done, "Bloody Marie", I'll make a new portfolio catagory to put it up in. If anyone likes bloody, gore, betrayal and social undertones, you'll love this.


_________9:12 PM EST-- Feb. 3 2004
Made all the poem pages into much smaller, more organized pop-up windows. The constant lack of layout variation was bugging me, and it looked messy. Also got the e-mail button to working.


_________6:36 PM EST-- Jan. 30 2004
Short story section is up. Uh, yeah. S'it.


_________6:16 PM EST-- Jan. 29 2004
Poetry section is up. By sometime tonight I'll have the short story section and quite possibly the miscellania section up and running. Trust me, this sort of thing is more tedious and time consuming then it is complex. Depending on whether we may or may not have school tomorrow, I may have this thing up and running before I have to go to work.

You can never seem to find anything when you need it. Atleast some of this old stuff that I may have to completely transfer from paper to computer by hand. Now is one of those times that I wish I had that voice-recognition typing program.


_________1:28 AM EST-- Jan. 28 2004
Figured I'd go ahead and get this shindig off the ground before the snow melted.

It's one in the morning and I'm not at all tired-- go figure. I'm going to be sleeping like the dead in the morning though. I'll get all of the pages done soon but as of now, this is the only up page. Stick with me, I'll get it done tomorrow, maybe finish it thursday if we have another god-like downpour of snow like I heard there is supposed to be, God willing.

Catch you in the morning, boys and girls. Much loves.
