What's shakin', bacon? I'm Chris and when I was a kid I hated to read.
No, seriously, wasn't a big fan.
One day at the wise age of 10, I made a huge mess in the back yard. Packing peanuts + kiddy pool + brother with a lawn mower = OMFG! I promptly got grounded until I cleaned it up which, of course, I didn't do. So instead of keeping me in my room for the rest of eternity, mom made me do a book report on Animal Farm.
Did I mention I was 10 at the time? Yeah, "four legs good, two legs better" and all that.
Long story bearable, in addition to making me damn certain I would always eat meat (before it eats me!) there was something in the book that opened up the floodgates.
For Christmas, I asked for books.
For my birthday, more books.
For random trips to the mall, give me books, damn you!
I read every SciFi/Fantasy title I could get my hands on. Eventually, I wasn't happy reading everything ever; I also wanted to write my own stories!
Actually, wanted is the wrong word. It's too soft and willowy. Hmm, got it!
Eventually, I developed the all-encompassing need to write a freakin' book.
So, that's why you've got whatever you've got in front of you. I hope you have / had a good read and it brought you some happiness / nostalgia / stomach cramps (or something).
