Introducing myself, David Bowles
Hey there. Verileah has pointed me here and told me quite firmly to introduce myself. So, yeah, I'm a teacher at a charter school in deep south Texas, just a few miles from the Mexican border. Aside from all the really deep literature I teach (whoa! heavy!), I fancy myself a writer of sci-fi and fantasy (though the first novel I've written and polished up has yet to be published) as well as poetry. I dabble in graphics a bit (I'm yearbook adviser at this school and we do... or rather, my daughter does the entire annual in Photoshop), but nowhere near the level of most of you incredible artists. What else, what else... my wife is from Mexico, where she studied photography and hotel science; right now she's really into construction and woodworking. I have three beautiful children who brighten my every waking moment (occasionally by starting fires).
I can't think of anything else to say, but I'll open the floor for questions, even silly ones.
Verileah's talked about you. All good =) Nothing dirty yet, I haven't tried to pry yet.... I kid, I kid. Looking forward to battling it out with you in the next Mafia =) Feel free to post any bits of your work or big bits! And welcome to the board. I'm Mae, I'm the board owner and Veri's part of my crew here. We love her tons!
Again !
Don't be so damned sensitive! Heh.
You asked extremely nicely... I just figured that everyone knows you here and would get a kick out of my painting you as some hostile, bossy uberwench.
Don't be so damned sensitive! Heh.
Awww!! *cuddles Veri*
Welcome to the boards David_Bowles. I'm Ruth_McEachnie...but people call me Gilly Looking forward to seeing your stuffs!
Actually, I'm Ruth-Ann_McEachnie ... but that's too many lines imo.
...
*smiles sweetly* Bossy uberwench? Me?
I hate and I love. Why do I do this, you might ask?
I don’t know, but I feel it happening, and I am tormented.
I would write more... but I'm shy
How very fitting for a former hate board turned to the world of art .
Yeah its ironic thinking back to what this board was and what it is now. I have friends who've come back after a year and are like, '....who are these people?' LOL. I love my board /squeal!
/modesty
Although, wasn't Patrick in a newspaper for the mafia thing? That's sort of world renowned! Or, at least, Utah renowned!
Were you in the papers too David? *looks innocent*
