What have you written?: How far back should I go? I wrote the alphabet, moving the S before the R; as I think it should remain that way. After that: newspaper articles, Advertizing signs, Theater brochures, and prose, poems and short stories now lingering around somewhere in various anthologies. Plus my shelf contains 15 composition notebooks and approximately 8 CD’s filled with my writings few have seen. (I don’t count napkins, envelopes, bookmarkers and other various textures for writing on that are missing somewhere in this house). What are you interested in?: Besides trying to locate the exact position of the Zeta Recticuli Star system; I’m interested in words. Just words. Words that move the mind, change the color of things, make funny sounds or just plain amuse me. And in turn I am interested in the arts, for me I find that I cannot separate words from art and vise versa. That is why the majority of my artwork is for or from words and vise versa. Have you written the words (metaphorically or literally) "The end" on anything?: I don’t consider anything to have ended if you find yourself thinking of it beyond the written word. As to writing things to completion, then I have completed everything I’ve written so far, except for 5 books I still have in progress. As for my artworks, they are never complete, there can always be more added or something taken away and thus the process is endless. What do you want to do next?: To someday complete my ‘Unauthorized Autobiography’, a project that has changed as often as I have. In the begining I had planned to make it so that it rhymed cover to cover. But the ideas have changed, now it contains a variety of writing styles within it. I started it over 15 years ago. My other endeaver is to create/finish a children’s book in 3D which is much more fun to work on then my ‘Unauthorized Autobiography’.
