Here are your questions…

I want to publish novels. Lots and lots of novels. Ones that people read and fall in love with and talk about and remember and go back to later.

Of Mice and Men by John Steinbeck.

I've never really cried during a movie, but Donnie Darko is probably the one I got the most emotional over. 

4. What’s the one place in the world you almost dying to visit?

I'm dying to visit China properly, as my first attempted visit was a bit of a flop. 

5. If you could meet any celebrity (author, actress, musician, etc.) in the world (past or present) and hold a conversation with them… Who would it be and what would it be about?

6. Your favorite cookie?

Chocolate chip. 

7. Guilty musical pleasure?

Within Temptation, who I only started listening to on Sunday.

Honored soul Bloodshed on the floors of kings Fight the raging tide And banish all who oppose

Wake in the sweat of condemnation I have no home Journey on the backs of gods Finality is within reach

Suffer in turmoil The choices of a blade for hire All consumed Biting sands of a broken hourglass

Stand guard as this dwelling burns Peeling walls of murder crumbling Giving all for the pride in death Every bridge must one day collapse

Anonymity the toll Solitude a friend unwelcome Within the trap of minds Nightmares with eyes wide open

Wanderlust of a man forgot Pay tribute to the teaching of old Never suffer fools Bring the frost of death to cowards

Land of the sightless Cyclops ostracized Lone and flightless Youth spent euthanized

Toothless fools Lure smooth ships to capsize I lie in spite And try as I might to capitalize

Concoct a flock to stop, drop and realize

Octaves fought get caught and penalized

Phenomenal thought pulled taut collides

So beautiful . . . I'm breathless. Timeless. - Tim

Come Ponder at the maw of existence Drink from pools of gravity, resistance

Dive Immersed deep within the parallel Witness time immortal harnessed in a cell

Bathe Wrapped in the shores of infinity Pulled by the undertow of vicinity

Soak Permiate the tides galactic Refracted elements becomming impacted

-Adolescent cosmos uncountable vast expansion Reflects a constant in light

-A doppler cloud of resounding discussion, conflict Our object in motion, mid flight

-And we shall wake in the conscious sphere cold, alone We are born and our flesh given life

"when the sky is speechless" <sigh>
