Expertise
I am willing to answer any questions about books except those regarding Fantasy, Self-Help and Evangelical/Fundamentalist Christian literature. I no longer evaluate the financial worth of books as it is impossible to evaluate them in good faith without physically seeing the book itself. I'm sorry about the inconvenience.
Experience
I am an author. I won the Henry Fonda Young Playwright's Award for the state of Connecticut for the first play I ever wrote. I have been commissioned to write two plays for Brown University's Rites & Reason Theatre. I have a short story published in an on-line literary magazine called "Slurve". I am often published in the Mensa Bulletin. Former Poet Laureate of Portugal, Jose Brites, has shown interest in publishing a collection of my poetry. At the age of 21, I was invited to speak at University of Nebraska at Omaha's International Third World Studies & Review Conference. I was the youngest speaker there. Not even having earned my Bachelor's Degree at the time, I was in the company of PhD.'s and experts from around the globe.

Education/Credentials
