Hey there.
Before the wolves get you, tell us a bit more about yourself.
You seem like an intelligent person, so go ahead and skip the stupid questions, and just tell us interesting things.


I'm personally interested on your views on poetry. Do you like it, favorite poet, do you write, etc.

Underwater Ophelia...
I am an author of horror and science fiction. My first novel, ETERNAL VIGILANCE, recently debuted from Immanion Press in April. It is a technohorror vampire novel, the first in a series I am working on. I also write entertainment reviews on books and movies for a few different websites and magazines. As for poetry...I write poetry as well. I published a collection in 2005 and am working on a new collection at the moment. A few of my favorite poets are Leonard Cohen, Charles Bukowski, Joe Hoppe, Ferenghetti, Poe...the list is rather long.

To address "I Am Great"'s comment...no.

That's really cool.
I love talking to fellow writers.
My favorite poet is Millay.

Welcome, you have quite the nice website and from what I've seen of the pictures of you, you look quite beautiful. Even though the website has quite a few details about your career I wouldn't mind knowing a bit more about the you behind the career such as particular favorite bands or what kind of coffin or simply put our starter questions.

The website also seems a bit cluttered especialy with the left 3/8ths occupied by catagories and more links than are in the actual link section.

You sound fucking awesome. Other members will probably try to fabricate reasons to dislike you because your having published a novel about vampires and thereby lived their dream will inspire in them incredible envy, but I got your back.

And in all the details about website I forgot to mention the book, I can't say I've read it but it sounds quite good. I might buy it, which means alot considering that I'm an unemployed teenager who is limited in budget by the money I have left from when I did work. I hope you'll be here to stay, though I'm afraid I'll have to say goodbye to you and all of gnet soon(for about 21 weeks), I hope you'll still be around when I get back.

After reviewing your site, I must say you have quite a few talents under your belt. Perhaps if you post any writing, I could pick up some tips, as I'm also very into writing and am hoping to publish a novel in the future.

Welcome to the GNet Circus. Are you by any chance related to the writer Christa Faust?
