Former journalist. Full-time outlaw. Sometimes they're the same thing. I write fiction, poetry and plays. Hemingway and Isabel Allende, Steinbeck and Sam Shepard, James M. Cain and Lillian Hellman, Octavio Paz and Dylan Thomas... the list of great writers who have had an influence is as long and varied as my life. That's a long list.
