I'm terrible when it comes to writing about myself. As such this introduction will likely be more about my contempt for the task than about me, for which I apologize – profusely.
When my wife prodded me into joining she was very vocal about all the great things I'd find here. From the wonderful assortment of people to the incredible support systems she'd managed to find herself a part of, where like minded creatives could push each other to new heights and gain the oft deficient alternate perspective. The only thing she didn't tell me was that I'd have to write this thing.
I thought, “I could just do the entire thing in third person.” My first idea is always a train wreck.
My second idea (a profanity laced log of “pivotal moments that made me who I am”) wasn't much better.
So I'm going to go with the (dreaded) old reliable bulleted list. (I did say I was terrible at this, right?)
- Father
- Husband
- Photographer
- Designer
- Geek (largely retired)
- Hermit
Short. I know. But these are the facts and nothing but the facts. As for my more subjective traits, I look forward to hashing those out with all of you over what will undoubtedly be long, enlightening and extremely enjoyable new friendships.
