Yeah this is my website. I go by Thor and many variations on that name. I’m in my early 30′s right now. I live in the western Suburbs of Chicago. I’ve been out here for around 10 years, in the midwest for about 20. Before that I lived in the Bay Area in California for most of my childhood. I’m originally from South Dakota, and I still love going back to visit. My favorite area in the world is the Black Hills.
I’m a typical computer geek. Professionally I’m a programmer and a web developer. During the day, I work for a small Welding Inspection company as their sole IT guy/Programmer. Though more recently it has been IT work and Programming Project Management (less programming, more managing contractors). Aside from that I work part time as the webmaster for The Hero Initiative, a comic book industry charity that helps creators in medical or financial need.
In my off time I game a lot. I primarily play games on my PC, but I also own an XBox 360. I used to own a PS3, but that was sold when I needed the money. Games I play include MMO’s, shooters (both First Person and Third Person), RPG’s, and RTS’s. I’m more a fan of Science Fiction than I am of Fantasy.
I love TV and movies. As I said, I’m a fan of Science Fiction, so it’s no surprise that I’m a fan of Star Trek, Stargate, and Star Wars (in that order). More info on what Movies and TV I like can be found on my TV and Movies page.
About My Posting Habits
To say I tend to be long-winded is an understatement. I know this and I don’t try to hide the fact that I write books where short paragraphs would normally do. Another habit I have is Editing…I edit a lot as well. I’ll try to point out my edits if they are significant ones so that you don’t miss them. I edit because I’m a bit of a perfectionist. If I see mistakes, no matter how minor, I edit them into oblivion.
More to come as I think of it…
