My Writing History: I went to a school from kindergarten to fifth grade that promoted writing. We'd have school-wide writing competitions and I'd always score very high or come in first place. I've had some work published as well, but it was poetry and biographical writing. Unlike many writers, I have no problem switching from very flowery writing to very straight-laced technical writing. I figured I'd be one of the few engineers with artistic abilities (unusual in engineering), but to my dismay, when I declared my major, my English skills actually started to go downhill a bit. Slowly, the stereotype takes over my writing skills, and I start to wonder if it's my fault or the idea that engineers are supposed to be 'art retards' that's causing this. I don't write too much anymore. I used to constantly. Not enough time. My writing style (usually): nothing really happens. I write about normal people in a slightly skewed version of reality. Some people don't like it because nothing happens. Others enjoy it because they can relate to the characters and situations. I've done the occasional sci-fi (that's all I would write for a period of time) and I even recently dabbled in a little fantasy, but my heart is truly in making the ordinary interesting and readable.
Other Stuff: Don't use my work unless I give you permission. I LOVE feedback as long as it's not derogatory. You can not like my art, go ahead and tell me what I should fix, whatever. Just don't say 'You stink! My dog could draw better' and leave. When you do that, you just make yourself look dumb. Really.
