About

I started writing stories and essays over twenty years ago after taking a course in creative writing on a whim. That influence prompted me to write about some of the colorful characters I'd met in the many places and occupations I'd explored. Some, though not all, of the characters and events depicted in my prose are based on these experiences. They interested me and I wanted their story told. The rest are products of a wild imagination.
