About the author

Posted: February 3rd, 2009 under Uncategorized.
Tags: 5-Rings, author, Cirellio, fantasy, random fantasy cliché, style

Some of you may have noticed I axe’d all my Wordpress.com pages when I converted this blog over to the style of my main page.

Now you might be thinking: “Oh no! What about the character and location pages?” *fingerbite-fingerbite*

Don’t worry. The pages have all been retained on my hard drive, and can still be accessed on my old blog.

Truth is, I’ve had plans to redo them a bit more /professionally/ to help preserve the snootiness of a .COM presense.

The first outcome of this diabolical plan is a new ’About the Author‘ page, also accessible from the main page by clicking on ‘about’. 

You may notice that empty square to the right of the blurb—That’s the spot where I want to add one of those infamous black & white ‘really serious author’ photos of myself.

Even though the passage turned out a little tongue-and-cheek, it still feels (somewhat) more professional. I hope it effectively answers all the questions someone might wonder about me, and I’m glad it doesn’t leave me as horribly stalkerbait-naked and vulnerable as my previous one did. 

Other pages will come in time, but I think the ‘Random Fantasy Clichés‘ page can *ahem* fall to the wayside. As fun as RFCs may be, perhaps they were best kept to myself. :P

  1. Brilliant bio page! I loved it. That’s so awesome that you have had so many wonderful teachers to push you as a young child. If only all of them would do that!

  2. you = sweet ^__^
    I’m glad you liked it.
    And I agree-> If all teachers cared more about the student than forcing their crazed isolationist opinions on impressionable minds, we’d live in a much different world.
    Of course, that’s not likely to happen anytime soon.

  3. Yea, if only, right. :| I’ve always thought teaching was such an important career. To instill wisdom, passion, and perseverance in young children — Something most parents don’t even do.

    Chris is starting his teaching career soon, and thankfully, he’s one of those teachers. :)

  4. Super Great Teachers are few and far between. One only needs to stop by RateMyProfessors.com to find out as much. But I figured Christopher was one of the good ones :)

  5. Whoa, awesome website. I just spent the last thirty minutes rating all of my college professors. :) Was interesting to see what the other students thought of them as well! Gah, I miss school. :(

    (hehe, sorry for all my rambles on your blog.)
