About Me
I was born in Bucks County, Pennsylvania in a little place called Doylestown. Nobody knows where that is, but there are a few famous people from there: P!nk, a so-so singer, and James Michener, a so-so writer. One of these days, I'd like to add my name to the "so-so" list, but until then, I'm just me, a Semi-conscious disabled vet, family chef, novelist and all-around great guy. At least that's what people tell me. *Smirk*

Conversational Style, as opposed to APA Style, Technical Style, or Business Style.
Interests
Historical Fiction, Sci-Fi (not Syfy), Romance, Mystery, Thriller (not Horror), or anything that catches my eye and I feel I can expound upon.
