Biography
Fabler and Perspectivist
A fabler is a spinner of tales, some true and some fiction, all in pursuit of deeper meaning. Fiction and stories provide a view we may ignore in our every day, go about the business of getting from paycheck to paycheck kind of lives.
A perspectivist looks at things from different points of view. By looking at the different world-views we can grow and change. When we see things in a new way, we respond in a new way.
Really though I just like stories. Any story that creates an escape from the mundane is good for me. I crave the distraction. I try to stay distracted and daydream as much as possible.
