# About me

I am a computer tech who has been pursuing a professional writer career for more than eight years. Why change professions? To know the answer to that question, you must know that I am very passionate about intellectual TV, Film, and books. In other words, something that provokes thought or teaches morals. This was before TV reality shows flooded the airwaves. Back then, it was easy to escape from reality. Now, I and many others like me must turn off the TV to escape and that is sad. Upset about this fact, I decided to do something about it, rather than complaining about it. After all, I do live in the United States of America; therefore, I have the opportunity to bring the TV, film, and book industry not only a profit, but also a positive impact, which will hopefully place a little art back into the industry.

Since I’m a writer who is striving to turn professional, I’ve tried working full time while writing in my spare time, but it didn’t work out; I needed more time. I tried working part time, but again I needed more time. Frustrated from my lack of progress, I begin writing full time by exhausting my savings and sacrificing my credit. Then, knowing that I was about to lose my house, I gave it up by signing it over to my cousin. Thereafter, I sold all of my furniture in a garage sale along with my car.

Now, having stated that, you must think that I have lost everything. That maybe true from your point of view but not from mine. No one forced me to quit my job, sell my house, furniture, or car. I made the decision to give it up myself, and I don’t blame the president or government for my mishaps nor do I regret any of my past decisions. And I do not need or want your pity.

Although I've sacrificed material objects, I haven't sacrificed my honor or respect for others and frankly, I would rather die than do so. Sometimes a person must give up material things in order to receive blessings from God.

I know I'm going to succeed...I just don't know when.

You'll succeed. Just keep your feet on the ground and keep reaching for the sky. I retired last year after 40 years in the maintenance field and I'm glad of it. Now its your turn to rock the world.

Thanks for the encouragement; it is appreciated. Sometimes, I feel like I'm not making any progress. There is a constant debate on whether I should continue or quit.

As my mom used to say, "Don't quit". Sometimes you have to step back and try to look at the shape of your world should you quit. I haven't written a word on two stories I'm doing for Spontoon Island, an anthro website, to almost two months now. I get inspirations once in awhile, but haven't pushed further. Now that the holidays are over I'll try to start writing and see what develops.
As an old man in Kansas that's about all I can do right now. But you will know when the time comes to carry on. And you will carry on. Just believe in yourself and "don't quit".
