Aquarian. They say I'm eccentric, but I'm not. Well...actually they forced an award on me to that effect at Insight grey, a Grey Worldwide affiliate in Nigeria. Point is, I Just like to see things from new perspectives. Have done something on Poetry.com, but I understand those guys aren't the real mccoy. So don't fall for them too.The best stuff is lying somewhere in rat infested drawers.
I like to look at a piece of history and tell the story in another way, say suppose the villain had gone this way, instead of that way, what might have happened. I love to shock traditional sensibilities. I like some deep philosophical stuff but no story escapes without a tinge of 'Below The Belt activity', even if suggestive.
What else do you wanna know?
I kick arses, cause I'm a martial artist, so don't mess with me.Except you've got my password, and ofcourse I won't tell you, cause I don't know myself....
Truth is I'm a level headed guy (well?) with a very comfortable job, who wants to give up the good life and do what he's always wanted to do,,,,LAZE AROUND writing Bestsellers like all you guys wanna do!!!!
