About Me:

A love of reading led to a love of writing for me. In college I studied psychology, criminology, and theater among other things not related to any particular degree plan, but everything contributed to my writing career. I have had many publications in various literary magazines and periodicals, including the prestigious Taj Mahal review. The first crime thriller I wrote was entirely in longhand. The three novels that followed were supernatural thrillers. Now I've returned to my first love - mystery & suspense which is the primary focus of my writing career. I am also actively seeking literary representation.

I Am A:

Reader, Writer

  Hi, J.P., nice to meet you! Not too many people can say they've written a novel by hand, at least nowadays.

  Thanks, JP. I hope you enjoy reading The Terrorist as much as I enjoyed writing it.
