About Me
Some art pundit said once that in order to be an effective writer/artist, one must travel and be experienced in the world. Horse puckey. I agree more with Eudora Welty's thoughts: "I am a writer who came from a sheltered life. A sheltered life can be a daring life as well. For all serious daring starts within."

The other kind
Writing Style
I can't answer that. Read it and determine that for yourself.
