A corporate librarian by profession, I'm a suspense lover by inclination. Over the years I've developed an interest in villains, at least the fictional type. Here's a tip: For more room in a crowded elevator, start a conversation with someone on how you've just killed off a character. You don't need to say it was in your latest book.

My mother taught me to read when I was four years old. That was the beginning of a long love affair with books, especially mystery and suspense. Several years ago,I decided to try to try my hand at writing a romantic suspense. Since May,2000, I've sold five books as e-books. The first four are now in paperback, the fifth will be in the next week or so.. The paperbacks are available several places including BookSurge.com, EBooksonthe.net and Amazon.com. Writing has brought me a number of new friends around the world and has fulfilled my dream of writing suspense/mystery. My books have lots of twists and turns,red herrings,etc. But they lack brutality and gore. There's more than enough of that in the world already. I tell a story with,I hope, convincing, likable characters. Engulfed in a problem/mystery,the main characters rise to the occasion and solve it, arriving at the end of the book together.

Birth Place: Richmond, VA USA
