This 20-something Film School graduate only wants to provide you with copious amounts of entertainment. John Rodriguez is a writer first and foremost, and he has a passion for all things movies, television, music, books, and video games. Entertainment junkie doesn't even begin to describe John. When not writing, John is toiling away at a boring desk job until he's done getting his Master's degree in Mass Communications. Meanwhile, he'll write about what he loves and is passionate about in order to quench his thirst for storytelling. On weekends, you may see him fighting dragons at a local bar somewhere in South Florida, doing what writers do best. His mom also thinks he's really cool. You can follow John's adventures on Twitter: @JohnR_FMF or contact him via e-mail at john@theyoungfolks.com
