I lived most of my life in Southern California and moved to Boston in March 2007, where I stayed until spring of 2010. I loved it -- great city. Then I retired from the practice of law and lived for about a year in Paris and Tuscany. My newest book is Retirement: A Memoir and Guide, which helps people who are retired or contemplating retiring to deal with the complex issues that arise when one goes from a full time job to the 24/7 leisure time of retirement. For many it is a difficult adjustment. My previous book, Eat, Walk, Write: An American Senior's Year of Adventure in Paris and Tuscany, is about that year. It was published the last day of 2011. My memoir about my journey to understand my role in the destruction of my three marriages, Digging Deep: A Writer Uncovers His Marriages, was published in April 2011. Shortly after that a collection of short stories I had written from 2006 to 2010, Unexpected Love and Other Stories, was published. I'm learning to draw. I love good food, and listening to good music and visiting the Boston Museum of Fine Arts. When in Boston, I walked and walked and walked around that beautiful city. When I returned from Paris and Tuscany in the spring of 2011, I moved to Ventura, California near my four children and four grandchildren. But by the end of 2012 I heard the east coast calling me again, and I moved to rural southeast Georgia, where I live now in a little old house in St. Marys among the oaks and pines and next to a used book store and a 200 year-old church.
