WRITING

I've been writing on and off for a few years now. I started taking it a little more seriously back in 2008 and still don't know if I'm any good at it. All I can say is I try and I hope maybe someone somewhere can take something from it. I write about bits and pieces of me. Experiences. Thoughts. Memories. A portion is completely fictional. Little bits of everyday life made up in my head because sometimes imagination is more real. I've self published two DIY style chapbooks in 2009 and have a few of my poems scattered throughout the internet. Maybe you'll read my stuff and you can relate. Maybe you'll find some enjoyment, some truth, or maybe even some bullshit. Maybe you'll find me. If you do, let me know. I've been looking for awhile now between lines and words. I think I'm stuck in a run on sentence somewhere.
