Always wanted to work in the movies. College got me an internship at MGM, and I worked on TV specials with Dr. Seuss and Chuck Jones (creator of the Road Runner). Became good friends with both of them. Later wrote for the Wonderful World of Disney. Went to Paramount Pictures where I designed internet entertainment and built Hollywood-style training simulations for the military. But the movie business made it hard to express my own personal creativity. (Too many decision makers). So, I started writing novels so that I could control everything. My first sci-fi novel was about a high tech simulation that was invaded by vampires. Wrote others inspired by Stephen King's deep, creepy characters. Now I work with a writing partner, John Pesqueira, and things are much simpler, only one person to argue with. I love developing characters and letting them tell me where the story is supposed to go. These days, my one of my favorite people is Babcia, the five-hundred-year-old witch who is the power behind all the goings on in 1960's Hollywood animation storytelling and in Zakopane Poland... gateway to Rapunzel's Tower where Adolph Hitler once spent a horrific night.
