Who I Am And What I Am Becoming

My name is Michael James Cullen.
I'm one of those folks that, for years, fancied myself a writer -- even though I wasn't really doing much writing and certainly not doing much publishing.
My mind often wanders in disturbing places. In this, I suppose I am like many other people. How I am unlike them is that I want to share those things I have found there with the world.
This website is a two-fold experiment.
First, it is a test of myself, to see if I can actually make myself finish one of these dreary stories I have thumping around in my skull and, if nothing else, self-publish it.
Second, it is a chance to see if my writing is even half as good as I like to think it is by attempting to attract readers, fellow writers, and thoughtful conversation.
Before now, I was simply a boy playing at writing. With this, I am a man becoming a writer.
