| Introduction | I was born in Poughkeepsie, N.Y., but grew up in St. Petersburg, Fla. I graduated from the University of South Florida (Tampa) in 1979 with a B.A. in Journalism. I now live in South Carolina near the Blue Ridge Mountains, a pleasant setting for writing, to say the least. I was an award-winning journalist at the St. Petersburg Times for twenty-five years and I currently work at the Charlotte Observer. I am married with five daughters. |
| Interests | I adore golf, but I play it only in my mind. I've been so busy writing my epic fantasy series the past three years, I've only played two or three times. Sigh. |
| Favorite movies | Bladerunner, Last of the Mohicans, One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest, anything LOTR |
| Favorite music | Joss Stone, Ted Neeley, Steely Dan, Mariah Carey. |
| Favorite books | LOTR, Rabbit Run. |
What reason do you have to believe the earth is flat?
