About Me
-
Describe Yourself:I am a cynical optimist. I believe the glass is half full, but some idiot will kick it over.
I work very hard at any job or task I have and do not get paid what I'm worth. I love to write, though my ego takes a beating with most submissions. I have had some success in the past year, racking up four flash fiction pieces, one essay and one short story in the past year. I stopped counting the rejections, though my collection is sizable. -
On Gather, I'm Looking For ...:people who like dry wit, crime noir, private eye stories with tough dames.

Employers:I've worked for Meijer-- a regional supercenter similar to Wal-Mart. Meijer is credited with creating the supercenter concept some thirty years ago. I've been there nine years, which is about eight years too long. , I also work for an Adult Alternative High School in Southeast Michigan. I've been there two years, part because I can't find a full time traditional teaching position (probably because I don't substitute teach) and part because I love working with our kids. I also teach high school Summer School. , I've also tutored through both Washtenaw Community Colllege and Eastern Michigan U. while attending each of those respectively.
