I am I. The rest will take care of itself.

Okay, that kind of jerks you around, doesn't it? I mean, you come here expecting to find out at least a little about the guy who wrote whatever it was you just read, and that's all you get. Not really very fair. I'll give you a little... but not very much.

My favorite author in the world is Madeleine L'Engle. She has this way of writing things that make me feel as though everything is really all right. Even though it doesn't last (nothing ever can), it's a wonderful gift she has, and I eagerly partake of it.

My favorite poet, on the other hand, is Poe. His work carries exactly the opposite emotional message as most of L'Engle's, but it's so well put together that I don't mind at all. I've often compared his poetry to a Bach organ fugue. The structure can quite complex, so much so that it often doesn't seem like it could possibly work together to produce anything beautiful. But then you hear it, or read it, and you're stunned. I won't cop out and say that all this complexity really reduces to something quite simple, because the plain fact is that it doesn't. The beauty lies in the complexity. To destroy that would render it meaningless.

I'm also quite a serious musician, which is why I tend to make analogies like the above. ^_^ In addition, I'm rather a history geek, and I can't abide people making up facts to put in place of things they can't remember. It just bothers me. (I'm a great advocate of actual reality, and pretending to know something you don't is another way of distorting reality.) Therefore, I try not to do that myself. I won't hesitate to say that I don't know something, even though not knowing things really bothers me.

And that's all you're getting, because it's always more fun to find this stuff out gradually.
