'The Road goes ever on and on...'
Born in Ohio, my father fled for Chicago after my mother's death. I was raised by my grandmother, a writer who passed on her love of the written word, a love affair that carries on no matter where the road takes me. I've served in the Marines as an infantryman, in the Navy as a Corpsman, and in the Society for Creative Anachronism as a mercenary (Left-handed fighters unite: Better Dead than Dexter!) I've lived in places as diverse as California, Virginia and Japan. For now the road is letting me be as I put down roots in Asheville and finally try making a serious attempt to become published.

But the long road always remembers you.
