| Introduction | I'm precisely what you think I am and I'm nothing like what you think I am. I'm a writer. I'm married, no kids, two cats. I think Ben Bernanke's name is pretty fun to say out loud. I have one short story published, so far. What do I write? Science fiction, fantasy, and mysteries. I am loud. I am decisive. I am opinionated. I am sometimes wrong. I am intense. I am very organized and don't like it when you move my stuff. I will make them let me. Come hang out in my wilderness! |

Lots of booze.
