| Bio: | Many things that I would not care to tell any individual man I tell to the public, and for knowledge of my most secret thoughts, I refer my most loyal friends to a bookseller's stall. -- Michel de Montaigne
Writers aren't exactly people. They're a whole lot of people, trying to be one person. -- F. Scott Fitzgerald
I am 28 years old and not dead yet. I am, in the words of ![[info]](http://p-stat.livejournal.com/img/userinfo.gif) billradish, "a small liberal-arts college in and of himself." I write fanfic and fiction and am terrible about replying to emails. I am blond and blue-eyed and probably taller than you. I am a virgo and a dramaturg. The two are unrelated. No, really.
I live in the Wrigleyville neighbourhood of Chicago with my roommate R, a local blues musician and Wheel of Fortune master. I am trying to teach him how to cook, with moderate success.
I am a groundling foodie: I will try to cook or eat anything I can afford at least once and some things several thousand times just to be sure. I am a maskmaker, photographer, wretched pencil artist, decent scenic painter, and passable tailor. I have lived in ten different cities across two continents, and don't expect to cease my rambling ways. I currently work as an office boy on the nineteenth floor downtown, make coffee, procure conference rooms, and send desperate letters to artistic directors asking for cooler jobs.
I am the moderator of ![[info]](http://p-stat.livejournal.com/img/community.gif) userpicks and I play Regulus and Julian at hp_dungeons. My fanfiction, which is legion, may be found at sam_storyteller.
I am what one might call an omnitheist, but my current bhakti is to Ganesh, the god of easing the path. My patron saints are Dysmas the Thief and Thomas the Apostle, and I have given my life to the profession of Dionysos.
I have clinical depression, which I manage without medication by choice. You will notice that autism and Asperger's Syndrome are listed in my interests; I am the older (and now, estranged) sibling of a diagnosed high-function Aspie. These are subjects that I raise on the journal, when relevant, and I welcome information and discussion about them.
My journal is informally known as Sam's Cafe and, as you can see, is read by a great many people of all religions, political beliefs, and ethnic backgrounds. Whatever your beliefs, you are welcome here so long as you remain polite. Come in, sit down, and have a pastry. I made them myself.
The lifelong struggle of a benevolent temperament and a high conscience against impulses of inhuman ridicule and fierce impatience has set up a chronic strain which has visibly wrecked his constitution. He is a most implacable, determined, tenacious, intolerant person who by mere force of character presents himself as -- and indeed actually is -- considerate, gentle, explanatory, even mild and apologetic, capable possibly of murder, but not of cruelty or coarseness.
-- Bernard Shaw, Major Barbara |
