message 1092: by Jake (new)

Jake Vickers (jakevickers) 1. I'm laughing because I know this wasn't intended to be unbelievably difficult. I get the idea to do things and then just stare at some form of this question for a while, usually before giving it up. I'm never trying to be cool or difficult with this. I write with the moniker Jake Vickers which is what his mother named him. I sometimes introduce myself softer as Jimmy which is what his father named him. I rarely think of myself as the conduit for the supreme incoherence of Seven D One. Often my Sister Nikki is at the helm. 'Gabs Prime' is fine with me, though I don't mean for it to be weird. Most people are more comfortable saying Jimmy or Jake. I'm fine with whatever makes people comfortable.

2. Mystery/thriller/literary fiction.

3. H-17 The Morningstar Abduction.

4. There isn't much that's interesting about me particularly. I enjoy puzzles, and mathematics expressed in prose.

Thank you, I'll take any help at being social.
