Biography
I live in Blue Bell PA and maintain a residence in Palm Coast Florida. I have been writing my whole life. I wrote poetry for my college publication. I've written articles for magazines in my profession and had a newspaper column for 15 years. That column gave birth to my first book, Maintain Me I'm Yours, a "low tech" home maintenance book. I have written 2 other technical books that I sell nationwide at my training seminars. I also developed three training videos in my field. My stand up comedy experience shows in all of my works. They are sprinkled with humor but far from comedy books. My passion for the outdoors lead to my first novel, If The Trees Could Talk. Its a tension filled account of a backpacking trip that ends in tragedy. My latest book is a homage to my college days in Western Nebraska. It combines East Coast worldliness with down home small town Nebraska and mixes in a West Coast flavor. The backdrop for the book is 1966 America, the most volatile decade since the Civil War. The book takes a close look at America's dysfunction of that year. World War II vets returned home with huge emotional scars that went untreated. This framed family life for the Baby Boomers. The book looks at family life up close. It is driven by the tension of a fledging romance as it is attacked by a rejected woman who goes insane. The ending will floor you! Previous publications include Maintain Me I'm Yours, Roofing From Asphalt to Zinc, Home Maintenance, and If The Trees Could Talk.
