I created visual stories for over 30 years. First dream realized -- I was a newspaper graphic artist and illustrator. But I've also spent my life dreaming up plots for stories. Second dream engaged -- I've self-published my first book of short stories. Third dream happens when you read my stories and enjoy my complex imagination at work. Major Influences: Science fiction as a child. Horror, fantasy and crime thrillers as an adult. Oh, wait. that's WHERE my influences come from. To be specific: Bradbury, King, Barker, Feist, Coben, Baldacci, and Vonnegut.

As an artist, I've won over 40 national and international design awards. As a writer, my awards may be over the next horizon. I'm aiming at the first star on the left, heading straight on until morning.
