Amberle, (for those of you who may not know), comes from the Shannara fantasy/sci-fi series of books by Terry Brooks; "Elfstones of Shannara" to be more specific. It is a series I highly recommend reading.

I chose Amberle as my handle on the first BBS (Bulletin Board System) I joined in September of 1992. The name has stuck ever since.

A Little Personal Info About Me

I moved down from Chicago to New Orleans (Metairie actually) in July of 1995. We moved to New Orleans in November of 1996, and currently reside in a neat little neighborhood called Algiers Point.

In short, I came down for Mardi Gras in February of 1995 and not only fell in love with the town, but with Craig (aka the Gypsy Joker) as well. After a few trips back and forth between the two cities as well as some majorly high long distance bills, we decided we would have to live in the same city. New Orleans won.

In October of 1998, Craig and I made it official and tied the knot. We couldn't be happier.

Currently, Craig and I are owned by three cats, Amberle, Daniel and George. We also have a wonderful albino python named Butterscotch.

is a monthly web publication for the exploration of ideas, cultures and mind opening points of view, in all media...graphics, sound and text.

"The Gyphon's Nest" is the poetry portion of "Seeker Magazine", the April 1996 issue of which contains a poem written by my friend Tirya. Look for one of my poems published in the June 1996 issue.

I am also an avid collector of music. I own over 250 record albums (yes the "ancient" kind that are hard to find these days), and almost as many cd's (and that number is still rapidly increasing). My musical tastes are varied, so my collection has a little bit of everything. Lately, I have been listening to and adding "alternative" music to my collection.

My music page has links to some of the bands I am really fond of, as well as a great search engine for finding out where & when your favorite band will be in concert.
