About Me

I'm the author of the novels Azucar Moreno and Los Morenos. I'm also a songwriter currently getting my music career in gear. I'm a terrible singer so I'm content with having others sing my lyrics :-). I recently completed my very first screenplay and will begin work on another one this spring.

You're going to the moon! What did you forget to pack?

My lunar glasses and moonglow lotion.
