I've been a fry cook, a carpenter, a newspaper editor, a technical writer, a web developer, and many other things. I'm an early-forties American man. I spent nearly twenty years as a Norse pagan (and was even a Chieftain) before I died, had a jarring near-death experience, woke from a brief coma with brain damage, and returned to Christianity by reading the Bible for myself. I've had a fairly "exciting" life in which I've done a lot of things and met a lot of people. The brain damage, unfortunately, disabled me to the point of being "unemployable".so rather than give up, I'm using my gift for writing to attempt to make a living.
