I create stories that deal with very personal and social issues: Alcoholism, mental illness, adultery, and domestic abuse as well as some other taboo subjects. My women are not weak, and my men are not always strong. You will find that my characters are not perfect - they are far from it, actually, because even heroes have a chink or two in their armor. It's what makes them human, and I find that fascinating.

Definitely 18 and over. Some of the scenes I write are a little racy, and have been known to have a sprinkling of profanity here and there. So, if you don't mind those things then my books are for you. :)

I am a pushover for tall, dark, and handsome! When you add six feet or so of that into the mixture, it becomes perfect.

ALWAYS! Even when I was five or six, my earliest memories are of me daydreaming up some story in my head. As I grew older, I would act out stories on my Barbie & Ken dolls. I've always liked high drama so my fantasies usually ended up with Barbie and Ken having a huge fight and Ken screeching off in Barbie's convertible.

Anything and everything. It can be a song on the radio, or an interaction between two strangers on the street. My mind is always plotting. The title of my first book, After All Is Said And Done, came from a verse in the Boz Skaggs song, "Look What You've Done to Me".

This is a story about infidelity, healing & ultimately forgiveness. Most people only see the immediate effects of adultery, but not the long-term ones. I wanted to write a story that shows the devastating ramifications of infidelity in a marriage - specifically a marriage that produces a baby from it.

I am currently writing the sequel to "The Monster of Silver Creek". It will pick up about two weeks from where the storyline left off.

Yes, I do. But I'll never tell you.

The book cover has to accurately reflect the character in the book. If I'm reading a book about a tall, dark-haired man with scorching brown eyes and the guy on the cover has blonde hair and blue eyes - it just ruins it for me. They have to match. Everyone develops an image in their mind of the character they are reading about, which is why you will not see my character's face, just his build.

I also want my covers to imitate a scene from the book. For "Seasons of Darkness" - there is a part where Everett visits his wife's grave with red roses. I wanted to show that on the cover of the book.

My desk is in my office/closet in the basement. It is big enough to hold my laptop, a lamp, and a can of Mountain Dew. This is a place where tall, dark, and handsome meets high drama - and it's located just underneath the winter coats. :)
