Alright,

I guess you say "WHERE THE HELL HAVE YOU BEEN ALL THESE YEARS?!" Well, school & radio broadcasting has taken over my life for the most part, but don't worry...I have made my return! I will continue to post my Literature/Prose, but I am now add to that my amateur photography! I may post some artwork I have done in my spare time, but for the most part this will consist of Literature/Prose & Photography.

I hope that may not deter you from me as I have opened up new ventures in my life. I would like to share them with you. I have great things planned for myself and DeviantART alike, so just hold on tight. This is gonna be an interesting ride ;)

[CURRENT CONDITION: HOLY CRAP!]

Alright, yes; I know I have been missing in action for AGES! I am just glad to be making my return. So, you may wonder, well - where have you been? Well, I have gone back to school to finish up in Game Art & Design. I am finished with THAT now, and so now it's on to bigger and badder things. My art will NOT be posted on here anymore, because it has become the source of unwanted drama, in which I DO NOT need in my life.

I kinda wanted to use DA to focus solely on my newfound hobby (Photography) as well as my Literature & Prose. Sorry if you guys were looking for me to get back out the PrismaColors and Photoshop and post up some new artwork. You are sadly mistaken. I feel as though my artwork is better left off of this website, and I should just showcase my other talents so that I may receive more recognition in those. Besides, it is hard to find the time to draw when you are a model/actor/radio dj. Yeah, I've been working my ASS off! I appreciate all the love that you guys have shown me and my talent. I will continue to deliver the goods to you. Thanks for reading, and prepare yourself for the return of "The Melancholy Soul"

The Achiever

2 min read
Well, hello there?

I guess you guys were wondering if I had completely died...No. I haven't died. It's just that I have been busy with so many other things, to the point that I haven't been able to really write anything. I sincerely apologize for that. Considering that I have posted this a day after my dad's b-day (R.I.P.) and 'Mother's Day' I figured it was mandatory that I at least try to write SOMETHING.

I came up with a poem titled - "The Achiever". It doesn't really have any story behind it. It is just something that I slapped together, in which you will see when you read it. LMAO.

I have received a note concerning my artwork and the future of my two main characters (Nagash De' Soul & Tali Yoma), well truth is...They have died. I have chosen not to draw anymore. My artwork is not where it was intended to be, and I am not as passionate as I used to be with it. I'll leave drawing to my uncle and my lil cousin who are also on deviantART. Check them out: (:icon-latif::iconneverpyro). They are amazing!

As far as submissions to deviantART, they will probably be more along the lines of poetry & prose, as well as photography (which has sparked my interest).

I wish all of you the best of luck with all that you are trying to conquer in life. The road to success is just around the corner. Don't turn away now. Keep your head up and be safe! ;)

RANDOM FACT: WENT BACK TO COLLEGE TO FINISH UP B.A. IN GAME ART & DESIGN

It's Poetic...

Okay, so honestly, when was the last time I actually drew something, or wrote something. Seems as though I completely abandoned the place huh? Well, let the records show that I am not done here. I have been quite busy with my latest CD release - "Serious Dance Lesson Vol. III" as well as producing a couple tracks for local musical artists around my way.

I have received e-mails pertaining to "Wedding Bells of Autumn". It seems as though a lot of you enjoyed this series more than I thought. It only started as a story based out of utter boredom, and now it's going to become legit.

As for my first prose project submitted on DeviantART, I have had to personally disembowel someone for stealing my first 5 pages of "Love Parade".

DISCLAIMER: My poetry and prose is in fact COPYRIGHTED. I am not like those people that just say, "yes my stuff is copyrighted...NO! MINE IS ACTUALLY COPYRIGHTED!

So, this person is now going to be receiving a major headache in the mail courtesy of the law, aside from a major split headache by yours truly.

On the positive note, "Love Parade" & "Love Parade: Seasons of Parades" are within their last stages of publication. The money has been paid, the manuscript has been proofread, now comes the cover art and my biography, and style of the book, and then you could expect to see it in bookstores. Go out there and get it people!

Expect more prose and poetry in the coming weeks! Thanks for staying with me on this long journey!
