About

I've published three novels novels and one collection of short stories and poems.

The stories and poems collection is titled Six of One, Half Dozen of Another. 
Striking Out
, my first novel, is a coming of age story set in Georgia. It was nominated for the PEN/Hemingway 
award.
Atlanta Blues, my second novel, is about the search for a missing college girl by a reporter and two cops. The search leads through the underbelly of urban Atlanta to murder and heartbreak. The novel was nominated for an Edgar Award.
Striking Out and Atlanta Blues have been taught in American lit. courses in college. All my books are available at Amazon.com and at smashwords.com.

Story Behind The Book

As a lover of literature and a champion of the separation of church and state, I am annoyed by the continuous efforts of this or that group, almost always religious in nature, to ban classic American novels from the classroom. One of their favorite targets? To Kill a Mockingbird. Imagine! Another favorite target? The Adventures of Hiuckleberry Finn. Both of these are great (and beloved) American novels and are as innocent of offensive content as the Bible itself, maybe less so. These censors comprise a social evil. I wrote the book to expose them for what they are: ignorant.

Reviews

The book is so new (at this writing) that I;ve seen only two reviews: One called it a great book a must-read. The other was a rant from a Christian who came (further) unhinged upon reading the book.
