I work. A lot. And while I hold the duties of about 8 people at the place I work, it's all good as I love what I do and work with a great group of people. I've always been a big entertainment junkie, and fed my habit for years with the online magazine ZENtertainment begun back in May of 1995. ZEN went on hold a couple years back when I took some time off from writing to go to culinary school and somehow con them into thinking I'm a Blue Ribbon Le Cordon Bleu chef. I don't cook too often these days, but the Blue Ribbon medalion sure does look impressive above my stove.
Shortly after school I was lured back to the writing world, taking on the role of Managing Editor for both CFQ/Cinefantastique and Femme Fatales magazines. I'm always writing stories or working on assorted tasks for the magazines, though right now a lot of my focus is on the CFQ website. As if the magazine didn't keep me busy enough, our company has gotten back into making movies, and we've shot three films since October and have many more on the way. Our latest, Room 6, stars Christine Taylor and Jerry O'Connell, and you will likely see yours truly in the opening credits of House of the Dead 2: Dead Aim.

... a monkey I didn't like... As for people, it's rare that I meet anyone here online, rather, it's a good place to keep the slightest semblance of contact with friends and acquaintances whom I likely speak with far too rarely. But if you happen to have a monkey, I am so there!
