I'm a fiction writer with an interest in straightforward genre fiction, upmarket genre fiction, and fiction that fits a definite subgenre, but that also possesses food-for-thought speculative elements. In addition to fiction writing, I'm a mathematical Logician and high school math teacher.

SubGenre Publishers specializes in ‘At-Least’ genre fiction novels: literary works that fit a definite Subgenre at least, bu

The scenes of violence are—for someone like me now in ultra-advanced age (44)—something I am almost too squeamish to endure. I read these scenes covering an eye, rubbing at the side of my neck, clutching at my stomach, and more, almost n

The Petty Rant

I don’t know if anyone remembers, but in the early 2000s Kevin Smith was adapting and developing Fletch Won for film. Jason Lee was to play the title role. This was all in the works until, as the story goes, Harvey Weinste
