My name is Lee McManus. I am thirty years old, and I live alone in what used to be my mom's house, in Heath Springs, SC. My father, Donald McManus is a pastor at two churches, one in Concord and one in Kannapolis, NC. My brother Jay works and lives in Columbia, SC. Currently I am working on a novel, "The Impossible Dream," and a screenplay titled "Jigsaw" with my friend Pam. I also have worked for The York/ Charlotte Observer for five years now. I was an intern for them and for the past five fall seasons I have covered high school football games for them. I am a member of an anime and manga club in Charlotte, NC. I also like sports, music, movies, comic books, writing, and reading.
