Stay True to Yourself

We’re all looking for more – more connections, more love, more understanding. And to laugh along the way. 

I’m the author of several book including Narican: The Cloaked Deception, a science fiction piece about the evolution of souls, and my most recent, Love in a Dying Town is a story about a single father raising his daughter in a dying factory town, showing her right from wrong, even as the world crumbles around them, even as parts of him do as well.

As a writer and as an individual I seek deeper truths that are often hidden in plain sight, or swept under society’s dirty rug.

I grew up in the West, the descendant of people traveling by wagon train to a new life. Some of their determination and wanderlust became a part of me. I imagine them sitting around the campfire telling stories, which is why I became first a theatre artist, then a teacher and now a writer. They are all ways of telling stories.
