edit data

I mainly write science fiction, but occasionally I'll dabble in horror and suspense/thrillers. The authors who have had the biggest impact on me, not only as a writer but as a human being, are William Gibson and Cormac McCarthy. My copy of Blood Meridian has more dog-eared pages than I can count.

If you have read any of my work, first of all, thank you. I know just how much fiction is out there competing for your attention, and I cherish every reader I get. I hope you'll take the time to leave a review and perhaps tell others about my stories.

This truly is a labor of love for me. Thanks so much for sharing in it.

If anything, I have the opposite problem: not nearly enough time to write everything that springs into my head.(less)

I also love how therapeutic writing can be.(less)
