Profile description
12/23/2016 - Decided to revamp my entire profile, start from scratch. As such, things will be added little by little. For now, however, I'll just give some key points.
I'm a sculptor in various forms. I tend to work mostly with clay, although I'm currently working on a HUGE project that will probably stand over half my size. This project is taking a lot of time, and of course I'm doing little side projects here and there as well.
I'm an extreme bookworm, as you may be able to tell by my name. I'm always up for some book talk. Of course, while I love my sci-fi/fantasy genre', I'm also big into allegory books ranging anywhere from Fahrenheit 451 to Lord of the Flies and everything between, before, and after. You want to talk Poe? Shakespeare? Blake? ect... You already have my attention.
I'm former military, have been overseas, met many people, and have seen many things. Don't come to me talking about life being bad, crying because people don't 'respect' you, or any of that bs. You don't yet know hardship.(not being intentionally mean here, but the things I've seen, the things I've had to do, especially to people in order to survive... Anyone here likely can't even come close)
I will always be straitforward with anyone. I don't believe in trying to sugar-coat the truth, nor do I believe in trying to cater to people sensitivities. I actually am sorry, but there are harsh truths in the world, you have to be able to handle them.

Thanks ^-^
Bookmite, you sneaky devil. xD I told ya, it's fine, really.
Nah, I didn't ask for anything in return. xD It's fine, don't worry about it.
And it did :D
That videois the best! I love those commericals LOL
Thank you! I've seen all of Jello's videos, but I love watching them again once in a while c:
Aw, thank you so much! He's absolutely adorable! <3 I hope you're having a great holiday this season. You've definitely put a smile to my face. C=
The woes of being on the internet!! I suppose that would make sense, though. I tend to look around a lot online and in local bookstores, but there's no bookstores [in walking distance, since I have a penchant for walking everywhere] that have a lot of English books. We're not a tourist city and the nearest one is about an hour's drive away. I'll probably find an online retailer that sells it and can ship to me somewhere, though!! If not I'll get an e-book, though they don't have quite the same feeling. [Eyestrain, and all that, next to the odd feeling of not having pages to turn and something substantial to hold.]
I know the feeling though!! I love reading, and ever since I was a kid I used to read a lot. I haven't gotten to really read a lot of books lately because I've been busy with college stuff [Went back for a Master's] I haven't been able to read as much as I'd like to, nor have I found many suitable books that I haven't read before. I've been reading on and off a book by Dale Carnegie on talking to people, since my career path requires a lot of direct contact with my employers and constant communication, and it's been quite nice in helping me overcome some of my social obstacles. o:
I feel maybe [hopefully!!] I'll get a good grip into David Birkenhead by the time the holiday break is over, since I'm so close to finished with my current read.
Oh my gosh . . . I needed this in my life.
I have to admit, a recommended book series is probably the best holiday gift I could've asked for, I'm absolutely going to get my hands on this as soon as possible. I'm incredibly grateful!! ;v;
Thank you, for both the amazing series recommendation [I don't know how this slipped under my radar] and for the fun contest!! Maybe soon I'll find myself making a connection between David and one of my IRL bunnies.
