I grew up in the Washington DC area, but after serving six years in the United States Air Force, I lived in Los Angeles and Atlanta while working in the areospace industry. When I was younger, I loved to paint.  I studied in oils, water colors and chalks, but in 2000 a young man was mistakenly shot by the authorities and that act was so hurtful that I started writing how I felt about it and found writing to be a wonderful form of expression.  The story turned out to be my first published book, Final Passage.  Dark Karma and the Wishing Well came later, but they too were based on social events that can affect any one of us, but with a scifi twist.
