About Me — H. Mikel Feilen
A writer of humor, life lessons, Epilepsy, and an abstract cartoonist
That picture of me is a few years old — the main difference now is that I have more hair on my chest than on the top of my head. Oh, Well!
The Who I Am is a long and drawn-out story of mostly uninteresting facts. The basics and the most positive aspects are the only sides of me you need to see.
Having any knowledge of me being a hot-tempered shmuck or a no-good cheating b***ard would be completely irrelevant to form a true and clear picture of the magnificent human being I actually am.
I see you’re beginning to form a picture as we speak — so to speak.
If you would have asked me 40 years ago who I was my answer would have been one word — DANCER! Then a quick line from the musical, “A Chorus Line” — “God, I’m a dancer — a dancer dances!” turn — turn — turn — ending with one arm in the air and the other akimbo on my hip.
Oddly enough, I come from the same state Fred Astaire was from. I lived in the same city little Freddy first made his Vaudeville debut at the age of 6.
That’s right, the dance capital of the world — Omaha, Nebraska!
