My primary interest is the history of the Islamic world (though the rest of the planet is pretty interesting too). I'm also into politics (I'm very much a leftist). Right now, I'm mostly interested in writing about the Arab world and South and Central Asia.

My primary interest is history, particularly of Europe and the Middle East. I also know some about the history of my home state, though by no means am I an expert in it.


Besides English, I'm learning to speak [[Arabic]], and have studied [[French]] (which I plan to take up again) and [[Spanish]] (which I've more or less abandoned, though I can still translate simple sentences). I plan to study [[Persian]] at some point too (assuming I can find someplace that offers classes in it). My hobbies include reading (mostly history and fantasy/science fiction-my favorite author is Tolkien), browsing Wikipedia for hours, and listening to classical Rock and Roll.
Politically, I'm generally center-left. I can read the Arabic alphabet and know a few words of Arabic and Persian. At various points in high school and college, I've taken classes in Arabic, Spanish, French, and German.
 
I've been rather inactive recently-tons of life stuff, just moved, etc. hopefully I'll start working again soon.
