My blog expands daily with my quest of being an entrepreneur. My main goal is a career in writing, whether that writing is novel based or article based. I have college education in computer software programming and java, and I have strong math and a huge imagination which I use to create a new game engine every month or two.

Casual Internet's Disclaimer
I have recently returned from two years of assisting the training of military troops, and have found a great amount of time on my hands while waiting for the fall semester of college. Thus, I have decided to write on the internet.
From a very young age, I have wanted to write. I started taking writing very seriously when I was in about 6th grade. I decided at that time that I would stop reading literature from other authors to keep from copying their writing style. This made all my book reports from that point on very difficult. Thankfully, a good mind yielded me no less that a B- on all of said reports.
To my credit, I had been quite a bookworm before then, so I had a base for comparison when it came to writing quality. From then, I wrote whatever was closest to my current life’s philosophy, and have a large amount of works partially finished.
This year, 2010, I made my resolution to get published, and am attempting to on three fronts. The first is a young adult fantasy novel, the second a graphic novel which I literally read in a dream, and the third is a game engine for a genre that has been without for too long.
Writing is important, because language itself is a conveyance of ideas. By reading what I am writing, you are allowing my ideas to influence you. For that grace, I will not mislead you reader, all views held and expressed in Casual Internet are from me to you. If there are views from a third party, they will be annotated as such.
Advertising will be on my terms as well. If someone wishes me to evaluate their product, and commissions me to do so, I will give what I think about it to you reader, and I will take from them my monetary compensation. If the item has faults you and the advertiser will hear them, if I deem it a good item or concept, I will say so. If someone wishes to reward me dearly for publishing something I don’t agree with, it will be under a pen name, and a different blog.
“Only fools would sell-out?” Well, I’m perfectly comfortable taking ad money to speak, for someone will, and if it is I at least I get to choose the influence of my words. As far as any backlash from ‘flamers’ or people who find my views to be unacceptable, I enjoy debate, as the products of conversation are the middle ground of opposing minds.
Within this blog will not be any drastically offensive material, as I save that for my sister-blogsite http://non-casual-internet.blogspot.com/ If you are in need of my raw mind, go there.
If you are to stay within the confines of this site, you will put yourself in no more danger than starting conversation with a stranger on your walk in town. If you visit the sister site, all bets are off; that roller-coaster hasn’t had safety harnesses for years…
