I write in a variety of Genres from poetry and children's books to fiction and nonfiction whenever I'm inspired to.

I enjoy fantasy/adventure and beginning readers the most. However my involvement in poetry increases everyday.
Interests
I enjoy family time, mirror etching, and quiet time with my wife when I'm not writing (which isn't very often). My wife and I were avid motorcyclists for over 15 yrs. I enjoy NASCAR racing and pro football along with good sci-fi movies.
