My Story
My approach to writing fact, fiction or fantasy is grounded in the concept of my longtime interest in Structuralism. I am committed to applying the scientific method in any work requiring empirical evidence.
My interest in the human condition provides the blank slate upon which I create and post my art and interests. Having developed a fascination with the mind at an early age, I base all my writing efforts using the three point model of Substance, Structure and Style.
