Why I Write

I write about people tested by extreme circumstances—whether in the cockpit of a jet fighter or at the scene of a small-town crime. My goal is simple: to tell stories that move quickly, grip tightly, and stay with readers long after the last page.

Thanks for supporting independent writers.
