    Hi... ​     

    I'm a storyteller whose background includes talk radio, newspapers and TV news. I've hosted a morning-drive classical music program on the California coast and published nationally in Reader's Digest, the Christian Science Monitor, and Playboy. I've won awards for my journalism and my fiction.  One of my essays even made it into an anthology for college English courses. For real?  Yes, for real.

    Also...

    I like big books and I cannot lie.  Miles and Monk I cannot deny.

    I take Mozart with my coffee and drink red wine at night.  When you read my stories, you make me feel alright :))
