I tell stories, I always have. Just ask my elementary school teachers, they kept me after school for talking often enough.

Writing is something I'd do even if I didn't attempt to share it with anyone. These characters live in my head and I feel compelled to bring them to life on the page. Let me clarify that I do not "hear voices" and am as sane as anyone who has the audacity to try to write books can claim to be.

I'm a lawyer by training, but I've always written. Even when no one else was reading it. Maybe something I've written will catch your attention. Feel free to tell me all about it.

In the meantime, please check out my novel "Grievous Angels," available at most e-book sellers.

If I come up with an idea I love, I can't wait to get into the writing process. But bumps in the road are inevitable. Music can help get me in the right frame of mind. Or sometimes doing something to "cleanse my brain," some sort of repetitive task that lets my brain organize the many thoughts clanging around in there.(less)

Guardians Again

Guardians of the Galaxy, Vol. 2 brings major new elements of the Marvel comic book world to the screen, while also providing a lot of small moments, blink-and-you-missed-it references, that are a lot of fun for long-time fans.

Note, mild spoilers ahead.

The main story folds in two characters well-known to readers of Marvel’s cosmic quadrant, albeit with their own distinct cinematic spins. The more s Read more of this blog post »
