Welcome to my website. I am hoping to entice you into reading one of my novels. To do this, I would like to begin by sharing with you what are my goals when I start putting words down on paper.

Basically, I am a story teller. I aim to write the kind of novels that I enjoy reading, that many call “easy reading.” They don’t pretend to be the great American novel, but are simply stories about people you would like to know, that you might like to call your friend.

I think that the hackneyed saying, “What you see is what you get” just plain isn’t true. Very few people who interface with you really know who and what you are about. In my stories I try to let the reader see behind the main character, to let you hear what he/she is thinking and feeling. Many times you relate well to this, in that you have also traveled down a similar road.

I begin with a fictitious main character and let you follow along with him or her as they face the kind of life many of you are living now.
