Hey, I love writing. I have been writing for as long as I can remember. The only problem with my writing is I never plan it and then I just fail to finish.
I was born in Puyallup, Washington. I lived there for almost a year when I moved to California, where I lived until I was twelve years old. We then moved to Idaho, where I have lived ever since (so far, four years).
I like to play lots of different games, ranging from old NES games to CS: Source. I also like to animate in Flash and do graphics design in Photoshop. My favorite anime that I am currently watching is Naruto (currently in Japanese, will be on Toonami in U.S. September 10, though I prefer the Japanese ones).
I have a chiuaua (I think that's how it's spelt) named Jerry. I'm currently a Junior in highschool and I'm not sure whether I'm going to go in a writing career or a programming career, so I'm taking both classes.
My favorite music I listen to can be put under the genre of Hard Rock, I guess (though some places put it under Metal). My favorite band of all time is Slipknot. My favorite book(s) is the Wheel of Time. I am only on the sixth book so far, but I can't read further because the print was messed up and it's missing pages and has like 20 pages in there twice...
This is all I can think of about myself as of right now. |

| I second that. I love anime! I haven't seen much Naruto though, since I can't download because my computer SUCKS. What other anime do you like? Right now I'm into Inu Yasha and Gundam Seed. My uncle has actually worked on some anime that was translated in Toronto. |

| What's wrong with Inu Yasha? Besides, forgive my impoliteness, but I was asking Ryan, not you. |

Well, I got some of the Inu Yasha dvd's, but they had like 1-3 and then it skipped to the 18th dvd, so haven't watched much (I don't like skipping around). I kinda like Bleach (though I've only seen one). I don't know of any other anime's. I prefer anime's in their original Japanese.
Oh, and yeah, I guess I can post up something I've written, but I tend not to finish anything, so... we'll see ^_^. |

| Isn't Inu Yasha on any American channels? It's been on YTV for a long time. I've seen pretty much every episode they've shown. But maybe we got it first since it was dubbed in Vancouver. I also like watching in in Japanese better. Unfortunately I can't afford to buy DVDs all the time. So I gotta stick to English most of the time. But I did find a Japanese VHS of a Sailor Moon movie months before it was played on YTV in English. It was so funny seeing the dubbed version. It's so badly translated! |

Yeah, it's on Adult Swim, but I don't ever watch that (I don't know why, I don't watch television very often.). By the way, I started up a blog (finally saw the blog button), so if anybody cares, you can, you know, click on the blog link and have a look. :)
Oh, I also posted up what I have written so far on a scifi story I'm working on: http://www.youngwriterssociety.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=4220 to look at it. |
