| Introduction | After chasing the American dream hard for thirty-five years, I tried to chuck it all to become a mystery writer - it didn't work-now I'm back practicing law. I've been many things in this life;a dishwasher,a cook,a pizza-flipper, a wrecker driver,a men's suit salesman,an entreprenuer, a restaurateur,a soldier, an accountant, and an attorney. I will attempt to entertain, inform,and share the trials, tribulations, and triumphs of the writing life and pursuit of publication and bestsellerdom. |
