Background
Information
When I was in third or fourth grade, one of my friends knew that I liked to write stories. He got the idea to go around asking the other kids if they wanted a story and what they wanted it about. Some of them wanted a story about horses, and some about Batman etc. My friend would then bring me a list of the stories that the kids were looking for and I would write them. He was my "agent". We were charging the kids fifteen cents for one page, and twenty-five cents for two. I made ten cents for one page and fifteen cents for the latter. It was a prosperous year for us. I have always enjoyed writing as sort of a past-time, a hobby. My wife kept telling me that all of my works were piling up, and I needed to do something with them. So, I began to look for a publisher. Luckily, I found one that took a chance.
Accomplishments
Two Editor's Choice Awards and nomination for Poet of the Year.
