Biography
In the course of years I've held a number of jobs (bookkeeper, sales clerk, computer network engineer) while trying to launch a career (jeweler, sculptor, knitter). In the process I've heard a lot of stories, read a lot of stories, and discovered I like to tell stories. My books were written "for fun". I hope you enjoy them

Smashwords book reviews by Nancy Hand
- Enlightenment
on Dec. 01, 2010
The book, in format, reminds me of the Yoga Sutras of Patanjali. There are short, numbered paragraphs, "verses", succinctly stating a point that can be thought about for a lifetime. While the author recognizes limits to the written word, his use of the medium is beautiful.
- Hot Soup- A WuXia Adventure in Old China
on June 27, 2011
This is a fun short story. In this "episode" of what might be a series, Little Gou dashes down streets and races across roof tops in his effort to save a young woman's life and pay off a debt.
