I'm Catholic, a writer and poet, with esoteric taste in film and music. I'm an English major focusing on writing and the study of the literature of the American expatriat community in inter-war Paris, as well as inter-war literary and artistic movements in general. I'm the author of a short novella called "The Better Part of Valor" which needs serious editing because it's not that good, and of a work in progress set in the above literary period. It's called "Alcohol for Wit by Theodore Fay," a fictional memoir. I am a very spiritual person, to use the current parlance. I hate the word "spiritual" because it ignores the great and wonderful creation God has given us. To ignore it, to treat it as incidental and say that all that matters is the interior life is foolish. I much prefer incarnational. I believe that the supernatural is the natural understood in its true depth. "The world is charged with the grandeur of God." I want to be a saint, and I can no more deny the existence of God than I can deny that I am where I am. While it is possible that I am wrong, to assume so would be idiocy and irrational.
