About Me
I love good stories, and I want to write them. The ability to create "people" and send them through time doing interesting things hold endless fascination for me. Creating--or trying to create--that fascination fascinates me (sorry).
Type of Writer
I suppose that remains to be seen.
Writing Style
Whatever works (hopefully).
Interests
Besides writing, there is religion, family, making mouth watering pies, finding those magical books, rereading the classics, which maintain my interest even on the fourth reading. I find modern "literary" works to be dull sermons for the choir.
Favorite Genres
I like them all, but they must rise above the genre formula. I want characters that come alive. Even cowboys are people.
Favorite Authors
George Eliot, Charles Dickens, Jane Austen, all three Bronte sisters, Thomas Hardy, William Faulkner, David Poyer
Favorite Poets
Robert Frost
Favorite Quote
Duty is the most sublime word in our language. Do your duty in all things. You cannot do more. You should never wish to do less.
Favorite Music
Classical, country. (How's that for a mix?)
Favorite Movies
The Spitfire Grill, The Maldanado Miracle, High Noon, The Hanging Tree, A Perfect World
