Call me creative, crafty, or artistic, I just like making stuff. My mother remembers, vividly, that my favorite toy when I was a kid was the Magna-Doodle. I stayed that way as I grew up, spending my free time on a variety of activities including  fan art, music, screenwriting, and even running my own Dungeons & Dragons campaigns. 

I say this as if I have left those things in the past. I definitely haven’t. I still unwind by pointing my creative energy at something, whether it be with a pair of drumsticks in hand, or a pencil. 

The Magna-Doodle is still my favorite toy.
