KimBoo York
I have always thought of myself as a storyteller, and everything I do usually comes down to telling a story about the world around me, my life, or the people I know. I run a business teaching Personal Project Management for people who want to achieve their goals and dreams; I run a blog for atheist mourners; I write fiction stories and creative non-fiction; and I am text technologist with an MLIS degree. I also have a cat.
