I really hate doing these things. Seriously, I never know what to write about myself.
Favorite Quote: "But then they danced down the streets like dingledodies, and I shambled after as I've been doing all my life after people who interest me, because the only people for me are the made ones, the ones who are mad to live, mad to talk, mad to be saved, desirous of everything at the same time, the ones who never yawn or say a commonplace thing, but burn, burn, burn like fabulous yellow roman candles exploding like spiders across the stars and in the middle you see the blue center-light pop and everybody goes "Awww!".
I do a little of everything. By day, I'm a systems analyst/compudork for a very large aerospace company. By night, I have many hobbies, such as costuming, building things, leather working, you name it, I probably tried it once. I travel all over the country to Science Fiction and costume conventions to compete or help with costume competitions.
(watch this: I'm cheating and copying my facebook page here! hahahaha)

Favorite Authors: Douglas Adams, Terry Goodkind, Issac Asimov, Robert Heinlein, Larry Niven, Alan Dean Foster, Jack Kerouac, Robert Jordon, George R.R. Martin, Terry Pratchett, Eric Flint, Ben Bova, Arthur C Clarke... Love the Old School SF, you know, back when it was perfectly acceptable to make the second half of a chapter the explanation of the mathematics behind that cool thing you just came up with in the first half!
