Spiritual History:
Stuart grew up in a thoroughly Christian home. His father was a pastor for much of his early years, and he attended a private Christian school from Kindergarten through third grade. So it wasn't much of a surprise when he became a Christian at the young age of six. Since then he has continued to grow in his walk, having experienced many facets of church service from Youth work to leading Sunday School classes and even going on a few short term mission trips to places like Mexico and Poland. Currently Stuart is attending Pikes Peak Christian Church in Colorado Springs, CO and is continuing to seek after the path that God has laid out for him.


Writing History:
Stuart has had a fascination with books from an early age, as well as with writing. He wrote his first two incredibly short stories before he left the third grade. Eventually Stuart began to develop his own source material for pulling characters and stories form, being inspired by the likes of George Lucas and J.R.R. Tolkien. Over the past thirteen years he has continued to grow and develop this material and after a few aborted starts as well as a few short stories (and one math project), Stuart is currently working on the first serious novel to come out of this world.

Stuart has also written articles and reviews for his college newspaper, as well as doing some web design for various personal projects. He also worked on creating a back-story for a M.U.D (Multi-user Dungeon) for a Christian ministry


Interesting Facts:
Among his various childhood exploits, one of the most memorable was using a metal fork and a pinto bean to blow up an electrical outlet. It took two tries, but it happened. The outlet is still on display in the hallway of his parent's house to this day.

Stuart only received a grade higher than a C in his only college math course, in which he did a final project detailing the life expectancy of the various Saurian clans in the Karnian skereta mines. It earned him an A+ for the class.

Once while riding in the car with his father, Stuart was asked what he wanted his nickname to be. Peering thoughtfully out the window, Stuart promptly replied, "Telephone Pole". Though for some reason that name never really stuck.
