William Brownell III

William is an artist, author, musician and poet from Anniston, Alabama.

Hello, my name is William. Or atleast that is what my folks call me. So it
must be true.
One day in the month of October, way back in the days of WaterGate and
VietNam, I was born. In a hospital, no less! As the years went by, I aged
and I grew. Then one day I stopped growing. But for some reason I am still
aging.
As a youngster (as opposed to an oldster) I never took up the bagpipes, or
plumbing, or skydiving. I love seafood, not as pets but as food. I like
dogs and cats, too… as pets, that is.
Anyhoo -- I survived the public school system here in Alabama virtually
unscathed, although I do sometime wake up in the middle of the night in a
cold sweat, remembering those years of teenage angst and awkwardness
and…and…
Well, after a string of ups and downs here I am, still aging. I think I've
turned out okay. I haven't killed anyone yet, so that's saying something.
And I don’t eat mushrooms or watch Adam Sandler films, so I think that's
pretty good, too.
By the way, for those who care about it, I like art, music, film
(obviously), and I dislike bad drivers, pop music, France, and "Friends".
Also, I think one day I might like to become a Viking. Until then, I work
for a Russian paper machete maker named Sergia. He's really nice but the
pay sucks -- rubles don't get you squat in this country.
