Don't look now, but the Cleveland Browns are 1-1-1, meaning they have already won more than the last two seasons combined.

• What genres do you write?
I have self published on Amazon one science fiction and one general fiction with a theme of age regression.
• What do you like to read?
Science fiction, fantasy and history
• How long have you been writing?
I had a short story published in my high school literary magazine, so, um, a long time
• Do you beta read?
I have done that.
• Do you have any particular hobbies? Are you expert in any particular field or craft?
I play an online horse racing game.

I am a semi-retired Registered Nurse. Prior to that I was a letter carrier. Prior to that I was a United States Army helicopter pilot. I am certainly willing to offer my expertise in nursing, helicopter flying or, should you happen to be writing about delivering mail. that too.

I consider myself an anglophile and am very interested in the differences in the English language as used in the USA, Britain, Canada and Australia/NZ.

Ha! The Browns actually kick ass this year. You know who I'm excited about seeing win it all? The Jags! Wouldn't that be something? I'm curious as to what you actually have to take part in during the horse race game. Do you just press a button as fast as you can? Do you get to go in-depth as the jockey and be bulimic for a few days before the race? I would love to be a fly on the wall as a parent walked in on their child playing an old, washed-up jockey with nothing left blowing lines off of a hookers inner-thigh!!! Anyway. I wish you luck dude. Keep kicking ass!

The horse racing game is very detailed and runs in real time, that is, it takes a full calendar year for a horse to age from 3 to 4. It takes a minimum of a week for a horse to recover from a race. The game is mostly text, with limited graphics.
