About
I have been using the site to research for several years.

I am a student of chemistry with a special passion for drug development, photochemistry and quantum mechanics.

I am fond of English history, especially ancient English history. I enjoy writing and historical fiction. There are not enough storytellers who write in the world; It is a travesty to make history boring. I am dismayed by the number of unoriginal historical fantasy writers. I also write somewhat awful poetry.

It is my intention to edit articles to be as clear and concise as possible. I hate bad grammar and punctuation, and I intend to fix any such that I come across.

Poetry
Ode to that Banana

Banana, epitome of life,

Yellow flesh and slap-stick peel,

Ageless is my happiness

And fruit pulp is my zeal

It follows where ever go I may

In pocket, purse, or glove box

The friendly reek of stinking feet

And shoes without their socks

It tans anew with each passing day:

Its peel bursts with heated sap!

Its precious youth at last is past!

My zeal seeps over maps.

This banana, of chocolate color

Might have no longer a life

(Though gourmands hold that in a dough

It has a bit of bite.)

Oh mushiness of life and vigor,

Of fruit flies that dip and dive,

Bequeath to me the life that keeps

So m’y maggots alive.
