Info

[edit]

I am a tentative newcomer to editing Wikipedia, but I am interested in contributing more because sharing knowledge is an incredibly noble and humanizing goal. So far, my edits have been small - mostly for grammar, flow, and clarity. As I try to create a couple of small articles, I welcome any help and/or criticism.

Areas of Interest

[edit]

I am a lifetime student of the humanities, although I only completed a minor in Philosophy. I am compelled to learn.

  • Human Evolution
  • Prehistory
  • Western History
  • US History
  • The English Language (and it's history)
  • Classic and Contemporary Literature
  • Buddhism
  • Japanese Language and Culture (I am a green but enthusiastic amature)
  • Martial Arts

Activities

[edit]

I live, work, and write in New London, CT. I have played in rock bands since 1998, and currently am the singer/songwriter for the three-piece I ♥ Diane. I also practice Aikido and the exquisite art of the Samurai Sword.

To Do List

[edit]
  • Article (Stub) on Seishin "spirit" - concept in Japanese culture and martial arts . ISBN 0-415-32225-1. {{cite book}}: Missing or empty |title= (help)
