Promise of Light

I am a freelance creative and business writer with writing, editorial and newsletter experience. My specialities include poetry, short stories, personal essays and motivational quotes.  I like to incorporate creativity into my life.

"I hold a beast, an angel and a madman in me, and my enquiry is as to their working, and my problem is their subjugation and victory, downthrow and upheaval, and my effort is their self-expression." - Dylan Thomas

I am many faces and many moods. I am creative,passionate, intelligent, sensual, dorky, quarky, highly opinionated, abit difficult at times ( strong willed, and take no shit from anyone),incredibly shy; more of a loner ( I have never fit in a day in my life,and care not to), strange (outrageous and outlandish when I want tobe), and so much more! 

Writing for me is a very nessecary tool, in dealing with life and the series of unfortunate events it can sometimes throw your way. I am really just a colossal dork. I also advocate for lobster rights. You'll learn to love me lol.

For those that do not know, I am the editor of this site, published poet, writer, and photographer. 

I aspire, with the help of others, to shape this place into something that we can all be proud of, something truly unique and eclectic, to serve up and share our creativity, to hone our art.

"Oh great creator of being,
grant us one more hour to

perform our art and perfect our lives."

James Douglas Morrison

Psychonaut X is the pseudonym for a beginning writer named Christopher Provost who lives in Nashua, NH.  He has been writing semi-seriously since March 2009.  So far his work has been recognized by Utmost Christian Writers, Frogpond (twice), and Prune Juice, in that order. He primarily writes short form poetry like haiku because that's all he has time for.  The rest of his time is spent working, spending time with his family, and drinking himself into an early grave.
