Welcome To The Valley

Dear Reader,

Fall is here!
You know it by the chill in the crisp Northwest air, here in Oregon.  Also, of course, by all the vivacious leaves that are loosening and descending in this City of Trees.  It is here I have lived, surrounded by mountains, for the past 20 years.  In this small town, the people are friendly and actually sleep at night.
I have only ever been a student of this quiet place.  I attend school at Eastern Oregon University.  I am currently studying college literature, art and music.  In my spare time I laugh with a few friends, put to use some recreational fun and sip cold peppermint mochas.
As a born Language Arts enthusiast, I have acquired a case of endless pondering.  I started writing when I was very young to record my personal progresses.  Outside of diary entries, the earliest pieces I put together was made into a series called "Books of Isaiah."  As a 3rd grader, these small cuts of printing paper and pencil notations were, to me, about a journey of a young boy, Isaiah, who could talk to animals and he went to heroic extents to save them.
Writing transforms emotions into eloquent confinement.  As my passion for words has developed I have explored many genres.  It wasn't until I discovered poetry that I found a true place that creates my consciousness effortlessly.  Written word is transcendent for me now.  The melodic trans in which each piece is crafted from is something I cannot explain in our current language.
The stories and discussions that are a result from my fluid escapades are but fragmented glimpses into my life.  They also are an extended experience into your own.  May these pieces move you on a trek towards your inner most thoughts about self discovery.
I have created this blogspot to continue my journey towards the point of my work.. which is you!  I enable you to indulge in my vast and mindful literature.  You will witness scripts that are 100% originally from me.  Edits and wording are meticulous to the point of current limitation in my knowledge of correct English.
