I'm a "what if?" kinda guy.  I love pushing the bounds of story telling across genres.  Also, I'm a husband, dad, dog owner, coffee drinker/roaster, musician, believer, pastor, and hopefully writer.  I believe that stories should be compelling, honest, fantastic in every sense and, most of all, hopeful.  The Darkness is real, but so is the Light.  Evil is powerful, but can not ultimately defeat Good.  The supernatural is just as real as the natural. 
A good story can transport you to another reality and
my stories paint a real picture of a broken world but offer the promise of something better. Some look behind the veil of the natural world to the teeming seas of something far stranger. Some simply paint a picture of everyday triumph. In the end, I want to tell stories that matter, entertain, educate and last.
