Old and loving it! ^_^

in introduceyourself •  7 years ago 

Okay, maybe I’m not all that old, but I’m not fresh off the turnip truck either.

I am married and have two girls. Both are doing degrees in oriental languages: one has just finished and the other is working on hers even now. My wife runs a small business. We live in the north of England in a countryside community where we can often hear sheep and cows from our living room.

I was born in America, and studied film in California with a view toward becoming a movie writer and director. (I have since embraced novel writing as a much cheaper way to realize my vision!) After spending a few years travelling I settled permanently in the UK when I married a Brit 24 years ago.

The main interest which will drive my posts on Steemit is fiction writing. In my youth I was a big fan of classic science-fiction, and later I got into thrillers, classics, and a few other things. My writing is dominated by thrillers. My motivation for coming to Steemit is to share my fiction with you. I hope you’ll take a look.

The first book I am sharing here on Steemit is called Send Him Victorious, about what happens in Britain and the world when the reigning monarch takes back the power that belonged to the kings and queens of the Golden Age.

I also have a thriller called Copout about a disgraced police detective who solves a major murder case by processing the clues in his colorful and cinematic dreams when he sleeps at night.

Cryptocurrencies are a recent interest of mine, and I am investing heavily in mining equipment. I’m always interested to know the latest profitable coins coming down the pipeline. I think crypto must be a big part of the future of finance, and it is wise to be in on that.

I love Lego and run a shop on bricklink, a web site where you can buy Lego parts of any type and quantity from people like me. I also enjoy building and displaying Lego, though I don’t have much space for this.

Finally, I am interested in Christian theology and apologetics. In particular I am persuaded by Reformed Theology (sometimes called Calvinism). In apologetics I find the questions of worldviews and evolution vs. creation of great interest. I am a member of a small Baptist church.

Again, I hope you will take a look at my book, serialized for you right here on Steemit! Also happy to discuss my books, crypto assets, Lego, or theology. (An eclectic mix, right?)

Have a lovely day!

Thanks for posting. Glad to hear about the reformed theology. It fits well with the crypto space. I will follow you. Perhaps we can interact on the subject of theology and crypto's political implications.
