About Me

I am an aspiring writer living in Phoenix, Arizona. I finally retired and now spend my time writing suspense/thriller novels and maintaining a blog and newsletter. My fiction explores themes of crime with a bit of paranormal sometimes thrown in. I find inspiration in the works of authors who use strong female protagonists. Though I’m not sure why, after my third novel, I noticed that was my style, so I figured why not embrace it? I currently self publish, but like most writers, strive to one day land a traditional publishing gig.

When I’m not writing, I’m usually following my other passion, outdoor cooking. I’ve cooked everything from grilled birthday cakes to whole hogs on open pit fires. I also enjoy bike riding with my wife, Jorie. We regularly hit the local trails when the desert temperatures fall below hellish.

My Thoughts
Writing has provided me with a sense of purpose, a sense of fulfillment. When I’m writing, I escape the feeling of utter exhaustion with life. It gives me that needed sense of self worth.
