I make Web pages like there's no tomorrow. To tell you the truth, I don't really make that many anymore because I'm so busy, but I do maintain my Web site.

My favorite colors are pink and black.

I spend way too much time working on my online comic, Negative One. It's a fantasy/drama type comic drawn in realistic pencil sketches. I've been drawing it once a week since May 2005.

I work as a secretary and do editing for a living. I have composed seven novels and have three in progress (and one I'll never finish). And tons of short stories. I make Web pages that in part feature these stories and tons of other junk. And I'm constantly busy with friends, obligations, online life, and creativity.

I fear both success and failure.
