Well, I have lived a "soap opera" style life, my first book was based on a true story, that of my cousins' lives mixed together and I added myself to the beginning and ending to give it a hopeful vibe, then I realized that this is what I was meant to do. That first book just showed me that I needed to be bold enough to do it.

My most current book is about Cora and Herbie, an unassuming couple. It follows Cora throughout her journey to take the reigns from her husband who was arrested for being a serial killer. She punishes everyone who had a hand in taking him from her.

Stories carry us into another's world, allow us to see through another's perspective, from the safety of fiction - no confrontations or debate needed! I've always loved to read stories, and adding to the world's stories, feels like a worthy endeavor in these divided and divisive times.

It's a mystery, it's story of small town humanity, it's a story of personal accountability and transformation. Most of all it's a story of hope for our collective future. If a wealthy and privileged company president from Manhattan can learn humility, and find a meaningful role working as a dishwasher in a diner in rural Oregon, maybe we can all find a way to work together toward a better tomorrow.

Reading and loving to read inspired me to become a writer. Since the fourth grade, I planned to become a writer. I knew that it would not earn me a living, but I never stopped anticipating the time when I could write something worthwhile. It seemed out of reach until I went to the university, and a teacher told me that I knew how to write. Once I had a stable work situation, I began to do research to write my book "Jesus Christ Divided." It took me twenty years of research and two weeks of writing. It just flowed out of me.

I produced several books in the last year. "Tucson 9-1-1" was actually written fresh after the events in 2011, but I was not satisfied with it. I had an excellent first draft, but I could not edit it. My friend from our writer's union suggested that I was still too emotionally invested. That was good advice, and I set it aside for thirteen years.

I've always been writing in one form or another. But after an extreme allergic reaction to medication last year, I HAD to get this story down on paper and out. It was like nothing else mattered than Noel and Philip's world.

The Deputy and Cheerleader Saga is about Noel and Philip's journey. Their struggles and love, trying to find their place in the world.

I want to give people a fresh lens to see those around them. Everyone has a story, every life matters — and if I can touch someone or give a little hope, I’ve done my job.

The Birthmark Murders has been brewing for 40 years. I anchored it in my theatre director days — easier to draw water from a well I knew. It’s the first in a six-book arc following Pekka Wall from doubt to love, loss, and “rebirth.” I wanted an older gay protagonist with depth, and a contrast in the way younger gay men handle relationships.

Boredom, I was in a hospital isolation ward during the covid apocalypse. I began writing up events that took place in an online Sci-fi RPG myself and friends were playing, I wrote, from my characters point of you, enjoyed it, much not as much when I tried the same with a fantasy RPG we played.

The Adventures of Warlord Whitetail is the story of Suzie Sue Jefferson Whitetail and her band of rabbit doe warriors, warriors who were recruited not only for their expertise with the bow of their choice, but also with the straight blade. They are oathsworn to protect the citizens of the safe haven of Badgers Brewery and Freepawt, to the death.

I was born with a gift and when I moved into my country home in 2006 my gift really came alive. I was first approached by Cole and his Sergeant dressed in full British Military uniforms from the year 1822 carrying rifles with bayonets attached to the ends. Private Cole spoke to me and when the soldiers realised that not only could I see them but could hear them as well...my nights were never the same. Since that evening I have been approached by modern day spirits of fallen soldiers each with a unique story to show me through their eyes so that I can capture their experiences of warfare that they want me to share. Their stories are both important and captivating showing the real cause and effect of wars. Will we learn from them? Only time will tell.

Whoops! Looks like I said it all above...

I have watched and read zombie movies and films for years and always wanted to have one set in Scotland. This is what drove me to create After the Fall.

I'm a family man, several kids and enjoy spending as much time with them as I can. They take up most of my free time outside of normal day job.

It all started when an author visited my school. Watching them bring stories to life made me realize two things: first, that writing books was actually a thing real people could do, and second, that there weren’t nearly enough books aimed at kids who didn’t love reading—especially boys. I wanted to change that. I started writing funny, fast-paced stories packed with twists, humour, and just enough chaos to keep even the most reluctant readers hooked. My goal has always been simple: make kids laugh, make them curious, and make them want to read the next page.

Absolutely! The Itchygooney Witch is a spooky, twist-filled mystery featuring my favourite trouble-magnets, William and Thomas. It’s Halloween in the town of Itchygooney, and when their neighbour Mrs. Bumble suddenly goes away, the boys start seeing strange lights, eerie shadows, and a mysterious symbol burned into the grass. Obviously, the only logical explanation is… witchcraft. With cellphones in hand and curiosity dialed to max, they launch a full-blown investigation. What they uncover is a mix of tricks, treats, and a revenge plan so sneaky it could only come from two elderly masterminds. It’s got laughs, suspense, and a final twist that might just make you question everything—even who’s really in charge of the firepit.

THE SUPERFLARE is my latest book, published also in German as DER SONNENSTURM. The initial idea was to consider what would actually happen if all digital devices stopped working overnight. We are becoming more and more dependent on AI and countless digital helpers – smartphones, navigation devices, laptops, iPads, tablets, smart TVs, smartwatches, Alexa, Siri, Cortana, smart homes, Google, the Internet, etc. But what if all those helpers suddenly stopped working? A worldwide EMP, triggered by a gigantic solar storm, could do the trick. Based on this idea, I started to design possible scenarios that branched out and condensed more and more during the writing process.

The fear of machines, robots, and artificial intelligence has been as old as humanity’s longing to simplify their lives, enhance their capabilities, or even – as “homo deus” – create a new life form: Artificial Intelligence. Professor Yuval Noah Harari describes this process and its potential consequences in his book “Homo Deus: A Brief History of Tomorrow.” His concern is that artificial intelligence might not make humans all-powerful but rather render them obsolete. When I began writing THE SUPERFLARE several years ago, these thoughts were on my mind as I developed the character of TRON, an artificial super-intelligence that plays a central role in my novel.
