About me

Gender Male
Occupation hypnotherapist, inventor, and author
Location New York, United States
Introduction Eccentric lefty. Married. Adult children. 3 cats, whose names are too embarrassing to disclose and a golden doodle named Polly. Renovated farmhouse circa 1813 2 hours north of NYC. Retired hypnotherapist. Inventor and author. I'm often cynical, having lived through the dawning and the death of the Age of Aquarius. I anxiously await its resurrection.
Interests Golf, raquetball, human behavior/misbehavior, cooking (a mean peanut sauce, a nasty clam sauce, and a feisty 3-bean salad -- along with many fish dishes -- are among my favorites), writing(fantasy and social commentary), reading(fantasy mostly). Music. Day-trading.
Favorite Movies Don't watch many movies these days. So many books, so little time. I also forget names, even of most movies I've thoroughly enjoyed. "The Great Escape" comes to mind, probably because the music is stuck in my head forever.
Favorite Music Blues, blues/rock, rock and roll from about '65 to '70, some jazz (guitar - sax), classical(primarily showcasing the violin, piano, or flute) Beatles-Stones-Joplin, Hendrix, Doors, Jethro Tull Credence Clearwater, Crosby Stills Nash and Young, Grateful Dead, Cream, Dylan, Marc Cohn, etc.
Favorite Books Fantasy mostly. Can't pick a favorite. I usually classify books as good or bad, and some are particularly good, often for different reasons: gripping tension, fascinating characters/creatures, unique plot, interesting language/style, great metaphors, etc.
