I specialize in writing realistic fiction; both historical and contemporary. I am blessed to have an overdeveloped imagination! I often get my ideas for stories from dreams.

Some of my favorite authors are Mark Twain, Charles Dickens, H.G. Wells, Stephen King, Rod Serling, Richard Matheson (Twilight Zone, I am Legend), and Earl Hamner (best known for "The Waltons").

I try to not write in a particular genre. In these times of mega novel series I think it's important to value the importance of the short stories, novelettes, and novellas. A great story doesn't have be a book the size of a dictionary.

I recently uploaded a collection of short stories, Destiny Binds Us All. This book of stories would be enjoyed by both men and women.

Last month, I uploaded Island Unknown. Its a great little adventure story that would also make a great movie. Any audience over the age of nine would appreciate it and there is nothing offensive in the story.

The Mystery of the Golden Pocket Watch: The Exciting Sequel to Island Unknown is now available in paperback. The Kindle version is also available.

My next project will be a novella about a young man who joins his cousin's rock band. I have some working titles, but nothing definite.
