Profile
I am obsessive about three things—ideas that can save the world, clean nostrils and good writing. I like cheesecake, but not overmuch. I like people, but not overmuch. I think cartoonists have the power to save the world. I believe H.P Lovecraft and G.M Hopkins were ahead of their time. I love Portland, OR because there’s poetry on the insides of public buses. I once had red hair. My family loves me despite this fact. I perhaps, at times, get voluble. Coffee, anyone?
