[edit] Identity

I am a newer member to Wikipedia, and my focus is to correct misspellings and revert vandalism in articles. I would prefer to be refered to as Demosthenes, Masoni, or by any other username or alias I begin using on this website or on any of the other websites I gain membership to.

I am a beginner at best with coding, so I'd greatly appreciate any help you can give me on formatting on Wikipedia. Do you want to know my real name? Or the first alias I ever went by? Well, all things are in order.

[edit] Interests

• I am interested in codes like those found in Dan Brown's recent literary phenomenon, The Da Vinci Code.
• I enjoy poetry, so if you've written any poem that you'd like to share, I'd love to read it.

[edit] Writing

I am an aspiring novelist in my free time, and I'd like to share my current projects with you. If you have any ideas on how to improve or add to my ideas below, please, don't hesitate to leave a comment on my Talk Page.

• "Renegade:" A savior-story about a band of rebels and their unlikely leader overcoming an unimaginably superior foe.
• "A Universe Divided:" My umbrella name for all my science-fiction ventures, all based in the same universe: one of Thinking Machines and hundreds of habitable planets.

[edit] Specializations

• Apple Computers and Products (software, hardware, anything.)
• iPods (these qualify as an Apple product, of course, but I felt it needed special recognition.)
• World War II
• Grammar
• Creative Writing and Literature

So if ever you need help or advice in any of the above-listed areas, I'd be more than happy and willing to help.

[edit] My Website Project: The Masoni Republic

My website, the Masoni Republic, is currently under construction. If anyone were to join my organization, you support would be greatly appreciated. Please visit the Masoni Republic at: Masoni Republic Homepage. Please join the growing organization and check out our sponsor sites: The Nets, dedicated to philosophy and history, and Creative Writers' Forum, dedicated to writing, poetry and other works of literature.
