Imagine a guy who has spent a lifetime building worlds on paper and on screen, then found himself staring at the real world again after twenty five years of marriage and five more learning how to breathe without the person who knew his every strange habit. That is where I am now, finally ready to step back into the wild circus of human connection. I am looking for friendship that feels easy companionship that feels warm, and a path that eventually leads to marriage with someone who actually enjoys sharing a life instead of merely occupying the same square footage.
My idea of a good time involves tabletop battles that somehow turn into debates about lore, video game sessions that ruin my sleep schedule, anime nights where I pretend I am going to watch only one episode, and any excuse to laugh at the universe. I write books, more than forty so far, which probably means I have a questionable relationship with deadlines. I have also made around two hundred film and television projects, which sounds impressive until you realize it also means I have spent far too many hours arguing about lighting.
I am especially drawn to shorter women, partly out of instinct and partly because it feels like the right fit, but what I really want is someone who enjoys laughter, deep thought, shared hobbies, and the occasional philosophical detour that makes us forget what we originally started talking about. Mostly I want a partner who wants to explore life with me, both the meaningful parts and the gleefully ridiculous ones.
