Born at the foot of a mountain, I realized early on that life requires a city with no less than two Targets and four movie theaters. Since, I have been traveling the world in search of my spirit animal and the perfect place to take a nap, which is going to be somewhere chilly.

While studying at the University of Tennessee, I completed and began more degrees than there are Star Wars movies and have used my knowledge of Human Sexuality to teach Language Arts and try to quit smoking.

I like to write, but I don't like to read. I love buying movies and watching them is okay. My favorite smell is a post office. My favorite sight is pretty women. And my favorite sound is a door opening or a match lighting.

The one place that I want to go before I die: Hogwarts.***NOTE FROM ADMIN: Matt Lawson's short story "A Lesson in Kissing" has been published in the May 15 - June 15, 2010 print edition of Hennen's Observer.***
