About

The earliest I remember ever writing something that stirred emotions was way back in my sixth grad when I wrote an essay,part of a test and my English teacher made me re-write it. He was convinced I'd plagiarized the essay. Can you believe that!!!!

For the record - I hadn't!

I don't really remember what the essay was about,but I can imagine how riveting my story must have been.

I tried serious writing in high school,actually wrote a couple random articles, but ridicule from classmates tore me down. I actually got to the mid of two books! But didn't complete...

By this time, I'd become hooked on suspense thrillers from Sidney Sheldon (his "Doomsday Conspiracy," will be  my all timefavorite), Steve Martini, Robert Ludlum, John Grisham (I looooved his-"The Partner"), Jeff Abbott, Robert Ludlum ("The Borne Series")  of course among others. But, it  was after completing college that I decided to really get down to it.

I really must thank a former hostel-mate - Kioko, for my first drafts of Ionshaker that I began writing in 2007. When I secretly started writing the story, he read the first draft chapters despite the many typos, inconsistencies and a lot more. But all the same he was thrilled. I can't explain the effect of his addiction to my story had on me. And soon he spread the word around and many friends also read it. 

I finished the story, but getting a publisher......... was another bad, bad, bad nightmare Just ask any writer, they'll tell you...

Anyways, Ionshaker
has been released, first as a kindle ebook and you can read the first chapter for free.

My experience so far has been that,  writing is like a drug, you start with a page, then a chapter, then a book, then without knowing you're on the next. As a matter of fact my second thriller TERROR ALERT is already finished and has got a couple of good reviews.

Just one last thing before you go, read the first chapter of Ionshaker for free on this website.

Story Behind The Book

We live in very volatile times, with countries rivaling each other to become the next superpowers and terrorists becoming more and more heinously creative. What if all of the world's nuclear power, from non-military civil power plants to lethal nuclear warheads could be controlled by a single software that could remotely detonate any nuke on the planet? And if that software was to be called Ionshaker, what would you expect if it was to fall in the wicked hands of terrorists? Lets give these terrorists a name, say - Al Fakir, What do you think Al Fakir would do with Ionshaker in their hands? Use it to make demands, start a random nuclear war perhaps? Do you by any chance live in America? If you do - what if they detonated several nuclear warheads and nuclear power-plants across America to kill copious amounts of people with the explosions and radiation? If you don't live in the U.S - what if the Al Fakir attacked your country with American nuclear warheads, how would you country react? And just assume for a minute that you're the U.S president at the time hoping to run for a second term - what would you do if Al Fakir took over your county's nuclear power? What if the only people who can help you stop Al Fakir are murder suspects and are on FBI's most wanted list, would you use them to stop the terrorists. If you did use them, what about the political ramifications? Would you put your career on the line? Really? Those are just but a few of the many scenarios that ran through my mind as I was writing Ionshaker and I do hope you'll love it!
