A little about me:
I started writing poetry as a teenager in an attempt to
channel all those teenage emotions somewhere
constructive. I wrote my first short story in my freshman
year of high school and worked on the school yearbook
committee for Junior and Senior year. After a 5-year
enlistment in the US Navy I went to junior college and
wrote for the school newspaper. After realizing how much
I disliked AP Style writing, I tried my hand at fiction again.
I wrote several stories that ended up incomplete before
starting and finishing "The Shoes that Charlotte Wore" for
a mystery contest online. The story soon developed past
the limited word count of the contest and took a form of a
novel in which I am currently preparing to send out to
publishers.
Some of my other projects include "Not if You Were the
Last Man on Earth" which is sort of a
memoir/autobiography on my personal love life. Both
stories can be read in their entirety for the moment being

New project: "The Paranormal Kind"- a non fiction account of many of my family ghost stories. Dating
as far back as the Mexican Revolution (circa 1910-1920).
