About
I was born in 1950 in Bradford, Pennsylvania. After graduating in 1972 from Mansfield University with a BS in English, I've worked in factories, taught high school English, and run a successful house painting business. I'm also a freelance writer, and my short stories, poetry, and articles have appeared in over 490 magazines in the U.S., England, Scotland, Ireland, Wales, Romania, Canada, Australia, New Zealand, and Malaysia. I've published eleven poetry collections, two audio books of horror verse, three volumes of short stories, seven Civil War novels and two French and Indian War novels. In my spare time I enjoy photography, trout fishing, deer hunting, and Civil War reenacting. I belong to the Company I Bucktail unit of of McKean County in Pennsylvania.
