My Bio
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.

I'm still busy adapting a schedule around my MIS Manager job, but I have a 2D animation announcement and project to release soon. Yes, I've learned a few things about 2D animation and should be releasing some details about a project that I've been working on and off for four years. It's not much, but it's a start.

Hollywood doesn't know how to write women characters. They either make them too strong or too weak. I'd would have liked this TV show if it was more focused on team work with Superman since they introduced him. But...NOOOOOOO... the writers introduce Superman and then throw him away like trash; we'll probably never see him again. If Supergirl is to work alone, then why even introduce Superman? I'd rather have Supergirl reach Earth years before Superman and show her develop her powers gradually, becoming stronger each episode, and not make a super suit until she was strong enough to fly. This would make more sense, especially when the cape co

March of this year, I assumed the position of MIS Manager and inherited a mess of technical issues. Unfortunately, this resulted in not only giving up my Fridays off, which I used for working on my comic book characters and plots, but forced me to work 10 to 20 hours overtime each week. And, since the transfer of responsibilities, I have been frantically tested each day with new technical problems along with politics and it has drained me to the point of exhaustion. Basically, all the extra stress and workload denied me time and energy for website updates as well as writing. There were some days when I almost didn't make it home...I was so ti

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".
Hey man, how are you doing? I sent you a note, an email and also fill the box. :D
I sent you a note too. Got your email and files. Want some more work?
