About Me:I am the father of two boys, Casey (9) and Andy (6). I have college degrees in Social Studies Education, History and Language Arts from Western Kentucky University.

Type of Writer:I am a writer of otherworldly fiction, sometimes what one would call fantasy, sometimes science fiction, sometimes horror.
Writing Style:I am a character-driven writer. I believe they are the most important element of a story. I like complex, compound sentences.
