Welcome
I hope you enjoy your visit to my website. Read my biography to learn about my background as a internationally published writer, writing and publishing seminar provider, novel and screen writing conference director, public speaker, and, most recently, boutique agent. Find out about my freelance work as well. If you are looking for a professional critique of your current writing project or would like help in developing your book or novel idea or screenplay, please feel free to send an email to me.
Buy a Book
Check out the books I’ve written and had published. Most are available on Amazon.com, through various bookstores such as Barnes & Noble and Borders, or through the publishing companies that produced the books. Many are also available through bookstores in Europe, Asia, and online. My passion is writing. Since I’ve been writing books for many years and, in fact, am currently writing books under contract, I understand the cyclic changes in the publishing world. In many ways, my books reflect those changes. In economic dark times, readers want positive messages. Others want spiritually uplifting books. You’ll see some of those types of books in my offerings.
Note Special Events
Take note of the Calendar of Events if you would like to attend a summer writing conference, literary presentation, author’s book signing, publishing industry trade show, or a screenwriter’s symposium. Also, the Calendar of Events is where I post information about my forthcoming books, media appearances, and publicity and promotional dates. This area of my website is still under construction. I hope you’ll check back later to check out upcoming events of interest to writers.
