I love to create word pictures, scenes that inspire to open the inner eye of your mind. I am influennced by many literary works. I read the Illiad and Odyssey, as translated by Alfred Lord Tennyson when I was six. No one didn't tell me I couldn't, so I guess that's why I could. I love the music of words, the spells that they cast, the undying magic of the heart to sing. My favorite author is H.P. Lovecraft, mostly his earlier prose poetry of his dream cycles, esp. "The Quest of Iranon".
