I love a good story!  Ever since I can remember, I've been writing down the words, ideas and conversations that pop inside my head---mainly because I know I'd get into trouble if I'd say them out loud.  One of my earliest writing ventures was a short story contest for my elementary school mascot.  Go Beavers!  My principal's advice of "don't give up your writing" has stuck with me these *** years later.

I've tried my hand at poetry, news articles, stories and even a little screenwriting---lately focusing more on short stories and movie articles.  My story "A Voice in the Dark" part of the Dark Plots Series is out now and keep an eye out for a completely different and new story "Asylum Harbor" (part of the Salty Dog series) soon.   

I'm also "old school" when it comes to writing---I keep a pen, paper or post-its handy to always jot down a story idea or a way to get a character into even more trouble.
