That's me. There's alot to say, but not much space to do it, so
I'll make it as short as I can without skipping anything important,
OK? Cool. And as soon as I get a decent, recent picture of me,
I'll put it here as well.
Anyway, I started writing when I was in the 8th grade in High
School. I was bored in my Civics class (a subject I already knew
tons about thanks to the Internet), so I got out my pencil, pulled
a spare notebook out of my backpack, thought for a few minutes,
and started writing.
I found that stories, while they seem daunting to any author just
starting out, came rather easily to me. Once I began writing,
the words just seemed to flow from my mind. I discovered that
my writing style was more of an "on the fly" kind of
thing, meaning I made most of it up as I went without any sort
of pre-planning.
Anyway, that story, "In Time," eventually grew to 180-some-odd
handwritten pages. Not bad for a first timer, eh? It took four
months worth of classes to finish, and not just Civics classes...
Then, when I got to college, I discovered the wonderful art of
FanFiction. I read several stories, not really thinking about
writing my own. And then, my ex-fiance, Erina, got me into Pokemon.
The show and games were nifty, but too childish. I figured Pokemon
need to grow up a bit. The result? Pokemon:
Nomad Heart, my first attempt at FanFiction.
I submitted it to Pokemon
Village, and for the first time, became a published (well,
kinda, anyway) FanFiction author.
It was around the time I finished Nomad Heart that Cartoon Network
was running the Trunks/Android/Cell Saga episodes of DBZ for the
first time. And it bothered me that they had a habit of skipping
several years between Trunks' arrival and that of the Androids.
It was clear that Vegeta and Bulma were to get together and have
a son, but how did it happen?
Well, the sappy romantic in me took over, and the end result is
what you see on this website. DBZ:UR.
And now, a little about me! When I'm not writing, surfing the
'Net or out and about doing lord knows what, I'm the lead vocalist
in a hard rock/metal band called Tempered
Edge. We've released our first studio album, which is a realization
of a childhood dream to be a rock star. I'm also a Volunteer Firefighter
with the Chester
Hill Hose Company in Chester Hill, PA. Now THAT'S a nifty
job! I've gone through quite a bit of training, and find that
I like being able to rush into a burning building with complete
disregard for my own life, just to save the life and property
of someone else. Makes me feel all warm and fuzzy inside, knowing
that what I do is helping my fellow humans.
