About
Who am I ? Why am I here? WTF in general? Read On...
I'm Alyosha, Inari, Avis or Nate depending on where I know you from.
I'm an artist, a historian and a lover of books. I have a few too many dictionaries and encyclopedias and a burgeoning bookshelf of history books. My favourite era to look at is actually pre-historic times - something I've often been fascinated by. It shows in my fiction choices too : The Earth's Children series (Jean Auel) and Evolution (Stephen Baxter) are amongst my all-time favourites. I'm also a huge fan of stories involving evolution (again, Evolution) and Coalescent, Exultant as well as the Icebones Trilogy (all Baxter.) I highly recommend all of these.
Some others books I'd recommend include George. R. R. Martin's "A song of Ice and Fire" series for an in depth, realistic fantasy book and The Black Magician trilogy for something lighter. Giles Milton's historical books are also good reading and very engaging for those not as fond of textbook / dissertation type histories.
I also have to admit to being a pen paper roleplayer. I'm not too great at the traditional Dungeons and Dragons games but I have enjoyed Exalted, Pendragon and BESM. I am part of SURGe, a University based roleplaying group which meets up weekly.
Any spare time I have is generally put towards doing "stuff". I'm an avid lover of having projects and things to keep me busy. I like designing websites, playing about with phpBB and I spend a lot of my time browsing the few communities I'm part of. Currently that includes here, LiveJournal, sheezyart, Y!Gallery and several IRC channels.
I like very few computer games but Age of Empires and Emperor can keep me amused for hours.
