I've been writing for a long, long time. My first published article appeared about 1978. During the next ten or fifteen years, I wrote more than 100 articles and chapters in more than 30 magazines and books. I published 2 curriculum books and several short stories.

     In the '80s and '90s, I worked in corporate training and development for organizations like Tupperware and Universal Studios, Florida. I also wrote a customer service training book during that time, which was published by HRD Press.

     I now write fiction. My first novel, 7 Sanctuaries, was released in September by Novel Voices Press. My second, The 3rd Option, should be released in 2013 by Belle Isle Books.

     I've won various awards in contests with Writers/Editors Network, the Center for Writing Excellence, Critique My Novel, The Center for Writing Excellence and Writer's Type.
