After the passing of my father and the birth of my daughter, I felt compelled to write and "Papa in the Sky" was born. Many have been drawn to the concept of "Papa in the Sky" because perhaps they wanted to find a simple way of explaining the unexplainable or that we all die, but we needn't be forgotten. So basically my writing began with a death and a birth. As an aside, I've always wished that I could play a musical instrument or belt out a song.  Life's experiences are my instrument, my stories are my music, and this is my way of singing.  Enjoy!



Birth Place: Brooklyn, NY USA

Accomplishments: I heard someone say once to "Never put off the good things". I liked that saying and I've always used it. While I'm still trying to find my voice so to speak, these stories are an accomplishment and a good thing. My greatest and ongoing achievement is my children. That said, I hold a couple of college degrees as well. Here's another accomplishment: The Caterpillar that Wouldn't Change was just published by SynergEbooks and Massimo's Meatballs will be published by Fall 2005!
