Michael Highland

I am an independent intellectual interested in being a polymath and a polyglot. I have a passion for learning new things and bettering myself.

Probably one of my strongest, and most enduring, interests is film. I love the cinema, most especially its mryiad global permutations, and aspire toward a career that in some way intesects with film.

 

I also like to write, and think I am a good, if undiscliplined, writer. I hope, not only to continue to improve the quality and content of my writing, but also to increase the amount of writing I do, specifically online. I also feel that writing should be an intergral aspect of my professional life, and I want to develop myself, and my credentials, as a writer.

 

I could wrtie a lot more, but this should suffice for now. I (hopefully) will keep this "About Me" section updated, at least periodically, but I know that is a stretch, as I tend to find myself pulled in too many competing directions at once, and usually drop the ball on the important things -- but not the most important, or current things --  that I set aside to do. Unfortunately, they mostly all involve writing, the one things that should be my first priority.

 

Here's to hoping that changes, and that P2PU can help focilitate and foster that change.
