I'm learning to write better all the time, and that is satisfying. 

I prefer to create independent female protagonists who claim their time to roar, select their mates, and demand their place at feeding time. And I like to read literary novels about the same.

I've traveled, worked, and lived with many roommates starting before age 18 when I began engineering school. Yes, I graduated BSEE 1969.

After two very long ago marriages where I couldn't read the writing on the wall, I swore off women except for an airhead bestie with a great body and benefits who was also the boss's secretary. That lasted until I retired.

After I retired at age 50, I learned Spanish and traveled around Mexico solo on buses, stayed in inexpensive hotels, ate in mercados, and conversed with anyone and everyone. I spent six months living with a large, extended, low-income family in a small town in Hidalgo. I was the only one in town that spoke any English beyond the basics.

Besides writing fiction, I've loved Linux and Java since forever, plus flying, sailing, diving, skiing, ... hmmm memory fails me.
