About Keith

Things that inspire my writing are history, East Asian culture and religion, current events/politics, music of the 60s, 70s, 80s, science, environmental issues, et al. Other than having a good flow of creativity, I think what makes me want to write is that I believe it is my best shot to really pull my knowledge and affect people in a positive way.

Fun fact: I once fell off a waterfall in a rainforest in Costa Rica, and received a minor concussion. I was searching for a species of mini pig and wandered off the trail.
