About

I've always had a penchant for writing and have always been intrigued by anything metaphysical.  I'm a student of the human condition; ever curious, ever open to new and exciting spiritual possibilities.  Blessed with a vivid imagination, a relentless thirst for knowledge and the uncanny ability to put my findings into words, I'm able to entice and captivate my readers from the very start.  The pages of this book serve as a canvas on which I paint an incredibly intriguing mental picture.  I use my words to succinctly take the reader on an unbelievably magical journey; a journey that's bound to spark curiosity and elicit a kaleidoscope of emotions beyond compare!  How Destiny Manifested Her Fantsy is the fourth in a series of recent pursuits, with work progressing on a follow-up in the near future.

Story Behind The Book

The beginning of this story is actually based on an experience I had at my last place of work. As the story goes on, I embellish and turn it into a real fantasy filled with magic, fairies and unicorns.

<p>From Outskirts Press Review team emailed to me on 3/14/2014</p> <p><em>Before I begin to refresh your memory about some of the options and available services here at Outskirts Press, I want to give you my overall impression of your work: You have a terrific writing style.  You have obviously done a significant amount of planning and preparation in crafting your work.  Your prose is nicely written with details that capture the reader.  Right from  the start your plot was very engaging and I really enjoyed the character you created in Destiny.  You do a nice job of slowly making your way through the story with details and a certain voice that allows your reader to really interact with the characters (who are all round and very nicely developed).  Characterization is one of the most important elements of a successful fiction story. I always love it when I leave a story feeling like I know the characters.  This is true of your novel.  You have crafted another quality piece of writing</em></p> <p> </p>
