The Wire Donkey is the first novel. Earlier fiction published online at Blue Moon Review, Mississippi Review, Southern Cross Review, and elsewhere. A collection of 14 stories, The Cat at Light's End, is available as a free e-book.

Besides writing, I like running, bicycling, and B & W photography with old film cameras.
