Keegan Page Stitt, this is my name. Though I don't expect that to tell anyone much about it. The first thing you care to know about someone, their name, is the least descriptive. Humans are funny. I am a very balanced man in that I find pleasure in many aspects of life.
I enjoy working out a lot. I was a state runner up in power-lifting. I have learned that my body functions better and feels better when it is regularly physically exerted. Humans are working class creatures without a doubt. The weight room is a place where I know I can find peace and time to sort out the ramblings of my rambling mind.
Writing found me at a very early age. The beauty of the written word is such a powerful force in my life that I treat it as worship. The simple act of finding words and beautiful phrases that the spoken word doesn't have time for, nor appreciation of. I enjoy writing of all kinds, but poetry steals my heart. Such immense force packed into each word; such presence in each pause. Every syllable that rolls off the lips should leave the reader inching closer and closer anticipating the next climax, the next metaphor. Poetry speaks big idea's in little space.
I hope that this class can help me mature as a writer and evolve further my diction and rhetorical prowess. I take great pride in my writing but I understand I am FAR from the best I can be. I look forward to being a part of this class!
