About Me
I was born with an active imagination, so my mother claims, I used it extensively when faced with punishment for infraction of the rules. Although during that period at the time it seemed a detriment to my reputation, it developed into a creative love for the arts. As soon as my adult life allowed, I unlocked the door to my imagination, once again, (with the help of four sons, who claim I've never really grown up), and performed or directed for the Emery County Community Theatre, My favorite roll was that of Peter Pan,(who never grew up, either) I will always be grateful to Jean Crowther who read the manuscript of my first Book, "Miracles for Michael",when I submitted it to Horizon Publishers, then insisted that her husband do the same. It was accepted and I was estatic. The first thing I did was call my mother and let her know that all she had gone through was now paying off. Writing became a passsion and I have never looked back, only to the future and what it might bring. With four books on bookstore shelves, I have a Fantasy "Prince Etcheon and the Secret of the Ancient" that will be out in November, and a sixth book taking my imagination in yet another directon.
