You Are Invited:
Now and then I hunt for new people with whom to collaborate creatively.
I favor the science fiction, fantasy, suspense, and cross genre storylines.
Occasionally horror or smut will also rear themselves in my fancies though they are rarely the main theme.
If you share similar creative interests please feel free to drop me a line.

Behind the Name: originally Jenoine, taken from the Taltos series by Brust
A large bulbous bodied race likened to wads of walking dough as I picture them.
They are the driving force behind the origins of all humankind, their sciences, and technologies.
The pseudonym “genoine” reminds me that appearances can be deceiving.

How quickly we lose sight of perspective.
How quickly we become entrenched in our personal spheres.
How quickly the world dwindles to a pinprick.
Let us endeavor to step into the bigger picture whenever the view becomes too small.
Unsuccessful though we may be the attempt is noble.

Who said 'if you don't have to work for it, it's not worth having'?
Bullshit, in most things I appreciate being met half-way. ^_~
