Bio
This Bio is under construction so please forgive my untidiness! ;)
this is me, or if we lived in an animated world it would be. the owl is my spirit animal. it is symbolic of wisdom-seeking and change. i've embraced the idea that the nature of the universe is change, and the owl reminds me of that. | |
---|---|
i'm a strange juxtaposition of things. i love both nature and technology. i get strength -- spirtual, emotional, physical -- through interaction with the natural world. the world of technology, particularly computers, gives me the ability to explore and create new worlds and an outlet for my creativity. | |
i love to read and write, mostly in genres such as science fiction, cyberpunk, and fantasy. some of my favorite authors are Richard K. Morgan, Neil Gaiman, Charles de Lint, Tanya Huff, and Ursala K. Le Guin. | |
working in web design as a freelancer has freed me from many of the problems i encountered trying to do traditional work: i control when i see people, what projects i take on, and my own productivity. i set my own goals, and can break them down into manageable steps to reward myself. downside is that i am almost always working, and the pressure to get clients is strong. | |
i live with my fiancee and my puggle, chloe, in a 40 foot motorhome. we travel the country: meeting people and hearing their stories; seeing beautiful places; and witnessing cultural events. i love traveling and am lucky and grateful at my age (34) to get to do this. it can be isloating, though, so i'm working on making friends and maintaining those relationships. you can read my work-in-progress travel blog at lost rambler |
