Started up here while on vacation so working from a tablet without access to some things. I will add a proper photo and other things in a few days. (Written 5/14/17)

I am primarily a blacksmith who also dabbles in other crafts: primarily wood and leather. I write a great deal. My education is focused on English both composition and literature. I have much experience in journalism, computer technology, and technical education. I've been out of the corporate world for a good while and while the smithing constitutes a job it's not quite a living yet.

I have a strong concern for creativity and our world and the beings in it. Connecting with those beings through craft is, for me, an act of worship and profoundly spiritual. (That's what I get from it: you get to have your own unique experience. No expectations on my part.)

I am open to projects and collaborations. I am new to Simbi and still exploring it's possibilities but I have a great affinity for cooperative interactions.

I will happily correspond with others here and elsewhere who have questions about what I do or how to try it themselves.
