I get a lot of visitors to my blog, far more than I ever expect, but very few know much about me or my blog so I thought today I would provide ten quick facts about me.
- I was born in the late sixties, which puts me in my forties and firmly a member of Generation X.
- I have over fifteen years of experience as a technical writer.
- Other jobs I’ve held include lobbyist, web developer, help desk support, teacher, trainer, newspaper editor and video store clerk.
- I watch too much television. Once, for jury duty, I had to name every television show I watch. My answer took several minutes.
- My first computer was a Commodore VIC-20. Not counting computers that I’ve bought to resell, I have owned twenty-two computers over the past thirty years.
- I created my first web site in 1993 and created the poewar domain in 1999. Poewar, by the way, is short for poet warrior, and was used as my video game handle in the eighties.
- I have a Master’s Degree in English
- I have a scar on my right thumb from when I was five years old and decided to peel my own orange with a steak knife.
- I have terrible handwriting
- I have been married for almost six years. My wife is a social worker.
