Brief Author Bio:

Sartre has this idea, okay? This idea of the angst which permeates people's existences when they come to realize their place in the world, how they're connected (or not connected) to everything. He talks about a person on a cliff's edge and the anguish they feel in looking down, not because they're afraid they're going to fall, but because, as fully cognizant beings, they have come to realize that they are capable of throwing themselves off. People are, in fact, capable and culpable of performing actions which may be fatal to them. The responsibility involved in this knowledge is massive. It is paralyzing. Do we act, knowing what could happen, or do we stand still, which is another type of decision all together? THIS is how I feel about the steampunk. THIS is the vertigo I find myself dizzy from sometimes. Why work is kind of meaningless and I don't want to do anything but live in my own stories, any of them. They make me feel endless. THIS is why I write.
