I am a 57 year old, retired finance professional and want a second career as a writer. I have a bachelor of science in finance from the University of Rhode Island and I've entered into a book coaching arrangement in writing. I've written a few short stories for the Long Ridge writing course and one more recently that was published by Separate Worlds-an online science fiction magazine distributed through paid subscriptions. I play competitive chess as a second passion. I live alone in a one bed apartment in RI. I've never been married but would have liked to have met the right girl. My writing interests is thriller fiction with a horror motif.
