My favorite types of novel are historical fiction and the classic. I read Fyodor Dostoevsky's 'The Karamazov Brothers', which was my first foray into Russian literature. A few on my list to read are 'Les Miserables', 'Anna Karenina' and 'The Chronicles of Narnia'.

I also enjoy listening to classical music. My personal favorites include Vivaldi's 'Summer' and Holst's: 'Mars, the bringer of war'. I believe classical music has a greater depth, meaning and musical brilliance than it's modern counterpart.

I write for personal fulfillment and to bring joy to whosoever may read my stories and take pleasure from them. If you think you would appreciate my stories, be welcome to read them.

I have also written a lot for an ancient history roleplay community.

I am Christian. Below are a couple of passages that I believe capture the spirit of the Christian life.
"And what does the Lord require of you, to do justice and love mercy and walk humbly with you God" - Micah 6:8.
"My commandment is this, to love others as I have loved you" - John 15:13.
