About Me
Yes, I'm still here. After thirty-plus years of journalism and fiction writing, I may finally be getting into my stride. I am the proud author of award-winning short stories, five novels, two novellas and an anthology. Look for my latest novels Slow Boat to China, Hunters, My Dear, Mister Shane and Lassiter Shane & The Masters of the World at Amazon and Barnes & Nobles. Meanwhile, I'll keep writing and writing and writing, maybe for another thirty-plus years.
