About Cubey Terra

(AKA, Stephen Cavers)

This is the page where I write something about myself so readers can get an idea of who the heck is writing this blog. Where should I start? How about a nifty bulleted list? Doesn't everyone like a bulleted list?

• I live in Vancouver, BC, Canada.
• I have worked as a software technical writer (writing user manuals) since 1994.
• I have run a virtual aircraft business in the metaverse known as Second Life since 2003.
• For a little over a year, I worked part-time as a "Linden liaison" -- a kind of helper/cop/troubleshooter in Second Life.
• I co-authored a book about building LEGO Mindstorms that has a title that's almost longer than the book itself: 10 Cool LEGO Mindstorms Ultimate Builder Projects: Amazing Projects You Can Build In Under An Hour.
• I self-published selected entries from the first two years of this blog in paperback: Raised By Penguins (available from Cafe Press).
• I have a BA from the University of British Columbia (1998), where I majored in theatre.
• I generally won't spontaneously break into a mime routine.
• I will juggle on occasion.
• I have had a website since early 1995, which has eaten up many an evening in pointless tweaks and edits.
• Blogging and Second Life together consume more time than all of my previous websites combined.
