TRUE STORY. Bella survived an abusive powerbroker father with organized crime ties, a drug-addicted mother and a physically/sexually abusive brother. Shocking & inspirational. When she couldn't cry, she tattooed a crying angel to cry for her.
"Laugh, and the world laughs with you...weep, and you weep alone."

Background
Information
Major influences are Oscar Wilde, P.G. Wodehouse and the early New Yorker writers like E.B. White, Robert Benchley, Dorothy Parker, James Thurber and Ring Lardner.
I studied for 5 years at Chicago's famed Second City Improv Theatre under Del Close and Paul Sills. I also had my own improvisational comedy group that played in clubs around the city.
I am from Chicago but have lived in S.E. Asia for the past 23 years. My wife and I currently reside in Phnom Penh, Cambodia with our young daughter who was born on April Fools Day 2015.
I have 10 e-books available via Amazon/Kindle. All meant to be well written and amusing.
