I didn't have a normal childhood. Does anyone? However, all I've ever known is I wanted to write, needed to write. My "ahem" career has taken me in different directions; journalists, magazine contributor and, now, independent author. Along the way, I've met some wonderful friends and mentors but my constant companions have been the demons I garnered as a child. Well, now it's time to exorcise them and, not being religious, writing seems like the surest way. I hope you enjoy my short stories and essays and maybe tell me why. In return, I'll open a vein and you can all read as I bleed out.
