About Me:

I am a librarian who has for now, put his postmodern fiction writing on hiatus. One of the reasons (besides writer's block) is that I want to spend a good deal of my free time being a participant in restoring Democracy in this country. One of the most important things we should all do is to keep everyone around us informed and see the real issues. It is further important to help all be able to find and evaluate the information for themselves--we can certainly be persuasive, but they also need to be able to continually be in practice of getting the truth by themselves, because it looks like our "reliable" media channels are not going to do a really good job, anytime soon. (Okay, that's not 27-3-9. That will go here when I get a chance to truly work on it :) ).
