It wasn’t until I married in 1996 and had two more beautiful children that my dreams started to materialize. Focusing on my desire to create characters with a realm of their very own, I pushed myself back into writing and submitting. Through countless rejections, I decided to spend more time enjoying my craft and less time worrying about publishing.

Getting up at four in the morning to write, in peace, finally paid off in 2004 when Nickolaus Pacione took my story “The Card” for his anthology “Tabloid Purposes” and again in 2005 when my first science fiction novel, “Link Detonator”, was accepted for publication by PublishAmerica.  The second book in the Detonator series, "Detonator  Time's Up" was taken up in August of 2006.   

Thanks to Robert Montesino and Lee Garrett, Speculative Fiction Centre has published three of my short stories, “Afterlife”, "The Boxer House" and “Consuming Passion” in their first anthology entitled Horizons.  Another hat's off to Nickolaus Pacione who is publishing In the Shadow of Regimold in his Tabloid Purposes 3 and the SFC for posting my new story Animal Lover on their site.  So things are slowly moving up as I tap away on my keyboard.
