The Deceptiquan's Interests
|
| General | I'm a Geek, and proud of it! My hobbies include Magic: The Gathering, comic books, video games, and fantasy basketball.
When I'm not doing any of that, You can find me creating something, whether it's writing a new book or short story, recording some new music, drawing a new strip for my webcomic, developing a new trading card game, or something, I love to create! | | Music | I'd listen to anything, so long as it catches my ear.
My CD collection ranges from Pop to Rock to Classical to Hip-Hop to Jazz to world music to even video game and movie soundtracks, and everything in between. My preference, though is for Hip-Hop, Jazz and Contemporary Gospel.
Then, of course, there's my own music, which you can find out more about
at my site. Also, be sure to go to my music myspace page and friend me! | | Movies | My tastes in movies are all over the place.
Mostly I'm into brainless action flicks like Transformers and Die Hard, and screwball comedies like Airplane! and Monty Python's Holy Grail.
I'm also big into comic book adaptations like Sin City and The Crow.
But If a movie has a unique premise and a good storyline, I'll watch it. Maybe. If I feel like it. Probably on DVD, beacuse I can't afford to go to the theatres a lot.
Oh yeah, and if James Bond is in the movie, I'm watching it. Twice. | | Television | I'm very picky about the television shows I watch, simply because I don't have much time to watch TV.
Any cartoon that is hilarious/irreverent will get watched if I have a half-hour to spare. this includes (but is not limited to) Code Monkeys, Family Guy, South Park, The Simpsons, Aqua Team Hunger Force, The Boondocks, and Ren & Stimpy. Beavis & Butthead is not on this list, however.
I like Boston Legal. David Spader and William Shatner are awesome! I also try to catch the WWE whenever I can.
Previous favorite shows include Ally McBeal, Frasier, Roc, Herman's Head, Night Court, Dukes of Hazzard, A-Team, In Living Color, Saturday Night Live (back when it was good), TV's Bloopers and Practical Jokes, Quantum Leap, and Various Afterschool and Saturday Morning cartoons (back when they were good) | | Books | I'm big into comic books, manga and graphic novels. If it has decent art and word balloons, I'll read it. In fact, my interest in comix is why I started writing and drawing in the first place.
I also like to read action and science fiction, and some fantasy. Asimov's Foundation series and Lewis's Narnia series is at the top of my list, but I also like the Book of Swords saga, and Pratchett's Discworld series. And since I'm a big Magic: The Gathering player, i read those books, too.
Oh, and don't tell anybody, but Anne Mallory (www.annemallory.com) is an old friend of mine, so I read her historical romance novels whenever I can. if you like sex, you should read her books. You might get some ideas. | | Heroes | the only Hero I truly look up to is the one who died for my sins (I know that sounds hokey as heck, but it's the truth), Mr. Jeshua Bin Joseph (most of you know him as Jesus Christ).
But I'm a big fan of superheroes, so I can list my favorites among that lot: Green Lantern (the Kyle Rayner lantern), Nextwave, Stormwatch, Nightwing and Storm. |

The Deceptiquan's Blurbs |
About me:
I consider myself a pretty cool, witty, righteous, God-fearin' dude who's fun to hang around, but I'm sure everybody thinks of themselves that way.
Here's what I can say about myself that a lot of other people can't:
I'm a professional graphic designer and illustrator with over 10 years experience.
my portfolio is at my personal website, www.jqw.biz.
I'm a writer with four finished novel manuscripts (unfortunately only one has been published so far. but i'm working on getting the other three out, and I'm currently writing a fifth)
look up "The Leopard Man" on Amazon.com and you'll see my first book...and hopefully you'll buy a copy.
I'm a cartoonist and comic book creator who's had stories appear in thee small press comic books.
my latest project, an online comic strip, is available here: www.unbeatableheroes.com.
I'm a game designer who contributed to the creation of a card game published by Hasbro (Transformers Battlecards, which became Beast Wars: The Mutating Card Game) and to the role playing game METALFACE (www.metalface.net)
I'm a semi-retired rap atist and producer who put out three CDs from 1999 to 2001 as part of a rap group that featured Hookdignious and President Zod
the group's website WAS www.phalanx-int.com, but we haven't updated the site in years.
My uncle is Bo Watson, songwriter (Toni Braxton's "Love Shoulda Brought You Home" is one of his songs) and lead singer for the 1980's funk band Midnight Star.
and my wife looks like Halle Berry (okay, this one is an exaggeration...but check out our pictures and judge for yourself...)
so that's what i bring to the table.
|
Who I'd like to meet:
Who'd I like to meet? Anyone who can and will pay a boatload of money for the movie rights to one of my books, that's who.
In fact, I'd like to meet anybody who can and will pay a boatload of money for just about any skill or talent I have to offer.
So if you happen to have one or more boatloads of money and you need:
a graphic designer,
an Illustrator,
a cartoonist,
a story writer,
a song writer,
or just a great guy who you would enjoy giving lots of money to,
then i'm your guy. Get at me.
