I was born in The Bronx, NY but I call myself a Southerner, because that's where I grew up. Smack dab on both ends of Winston-Salem, NC.

Right now I spend my days (and nights and midnights) living and working in northeast Ohio. And when I'm not doing that, I'm a dad. And when I'm not doing that, I'm a husband. And when I'm not doing that, I'm fly fishing. And when I'm not doing that, I find the time to write.

I don't hold a fancy arts degree or make my own paper, but I am a life-long reader. I started out with Stephen King at age eleven and, when I had exhausted the supply of books at my aunt's house, moved on to more serious books. Like all of the "classics" I was forced to read in school. And the encyclopedia.

Hi Strangeness is my first novel.
