Mid-30s writer living a comfortable but somewhat
intellectually isolated existence in a small rural community
in Ohio. The people here are very good people and I'm happy
to know them, they're just not tuned to the same frequency
as I am. So looking for some good conversation. Aside from
the need for good conversation, life is sweet -- I write and
publish frequently and enjoy my time with my family. People
who know me would tell you I'm funny, smart, curious and
only occasionally obnoxious and arrogant. People who don't
know me would tell you I'm of medium height and build.

Smart, funny, intelligent people who like to discuss things
online or offline. NOT looking for romance -- I've got a
wife for that (and she has me! It's nice when it works out
that way), but open to making new friends.
