Welcome to my website.
I am glad you stopped by. Thank you for your interest in my work.
I have sold over fifty short stories and articles to professional and semi-professional magazines. My first science fiction novel, FEVREBLAU, was published by Five Star Press in 2005. FEVREBLAU can be found in used bookstores, online dealers and libraries. Or perhaps you can borrow a copy from a friend!
I am currently working dark fantasy Westerns set in the mythical town of Haxan, New Mexico, along with other projects.
I have an Internet radio station Theater 13. We broadcast horror, suspense and dark fantasy programs. Please check out the website and give a listen!

1. TELL A GOOD STORY. This should be self-explanatory. Sadly, for many new writers, and quite a few professionals who should know better, this is a perpetual stumbling block.
2. TRUST YOUR INSTINCTS. Put more simply, write what you feel and don’t be afraid to take chances. ‘Nuff said!
3. PERSEVERE. You must have the courage to fail. Remember, the unsold story is the unread story. Sometimes it’s like banging your head against a brick wall. Trust me, I’ve been there. But there are a LOT of writers who get published. They are successful because they never quit. You should do the same.
Good luck!
