Grew up in Pennsylvania. Earned my BA in English and Master of Education from Bloomsburg University of PA.

I began my teaching career in Sarasota, FL, moved back to PA and taught cyber school, and then, missing the classroom atmosphere and student interaction, began teaching in Frederick, MD.

I've lived in PA, NY, NV, FL, and MD. Who knows where the future will take me or if I'm going to settle down where I am now. The world is just too exciting to sit still for too long.

I've been writing since I was in Junior High School. I was inspired by the soap operas that my mother watched.

My first book, Survival of the Fittest, was written for my students in Frederick, MD to encourage the kids to want to read. I felt that by giving the students a cha

I'm back... Hopefully you're as happy as I am.

The second book Survival of the Fittest - The Closest Enemy is out in all forms (hardcover, paperback, ebook, Kindle, Nook, Kobo, and everything else available).

“Lie to me. Tell me that I'm going to wake up and all of this is nothing but a nightmare.”
Michael Taylor, Survival of the Fittest: The Last Hope for the Human Race

“Be silent and safe — silence never betrays you;
Be true to your word and your work and your friend;
Put least trust in him who is foremost to praise you,
Nor judge of a road till it draw to the end.”
John Boyle O'Reilly, Life of John Boyle O'Reilly

“Lie to me. Tell me that I'm going to wake up and all of this is nothing but a nightmare.”
Michael Taylor, Survival of the Fittest: The Last Hope for the Human Race
