I've just arrived here, and I really love the place already. There are so many interesting people, as well as wonderful art, prose and ideas. I hope that someday soon I will be able to contribute something and feel like I belong here. I tend to the depressive, cynical side of life, so that hurts me as far as having energy or motivation to create. However, it does give me a lot of material to work with. If I can just get it out. Maybe this site will be good for me.

Again, thank you all in advance for your beautiful work. Cheers.

P.S. I do have a few photos of myself and my dogs that I will post in the scraps section, if you would like to take a look. They were taken with a cheap $10 webcam, so sorry for the poor quality.
