Pro Site Aliases: Hatrack, Hatrax, Wolfgang Current
Base of Operations: "Fashionable" Ferndale, Michigan,
a small town near the big city, as it were. We're about six square miles
of land tucked just north of the city of Detroit. I live half a mile
from 8 Mile, the street made famous by local son Eminem. I also live
about ten miles (in a straight line) from the U.S./Canadian border,
in one of the only places in the U.S. where you have to drive south
to get to Canada. Married:
Yes. I'm married to a Japanese girl who is crazier than me. Help. Education:
BA from Oakland University, Rochester / Auburn Hills, MI, in East Asian
Studies. Graduate student at Eastern Michigan University going for a
Master's in Special Education… which I might eventually finish
if I can find a break from writing stuff about spaceships and aliens. Blood Type: I take anything from 5W-30 to 10W-40, depending on the season and conditions. Deepest Obsession: : Skulls! They lie at the heart of us all... well, maybe just in the head. They are cool. They are also a gentle, friendly reminder that one day I'll be dead so I'd better get my butt in gear. Stupid Human Tricks: I can speak Japanese well enough to sing enka in a karaoke bar. I can also move each of my eyeballs separately from the other. Favorite
Music: Just about any genre from classical to grindcore to progressive
to minimalist, but I prefer highly unusual and experimental approaches.
Examples: Jeffrey Koepper, Mike Oldfield, Rogue Element, Gong, Arundas,
John Cage, Naked City, Painkiller, Melt Banana, Tom Waits, Boredoms,
Magma, Hoahio, Steve Roach, and Terry Riley. All time favorites: Rush,
King Crimson, EARLY Genesis, Hawkwind, and early Tangerine Dream. Favorite Authors: Isaac Asimov, Philip K. Dick, Ray Bradbury, Octavia Butler, Harlan Ellison, Haruki Murakami, Neal Stephenson, William Gibson, Pam Bliss, and Douglas Coupland. Favorite Films: Blade Runner, Amadeus, Fight Club, Gandhi, The Exorcist, The Hudsucker Proxy, Chariots of Fire, Buckaroo Banzai, City of Lost Children, Monty Python's The Life of Brian, A Scanner Darkly, Evil Dead 2. Favorite
Director: Terry Gilliam!!!!! Worst Job: While in high school I was employed by the golden arches. Not as bad as it might seem, since I had the best job in the place, namely cooking the burgers. The bad part was seeing just what goes into the food. I also got to do a lot of culinary experiments, so the time was not totally wasted. Personal
Info: I'm very tall. I'm a loud, forward, irascible lout with a
heart of gold. I've been writing stories since I was little. |
