Dead Scary is my most recent book. My youngest son, Nic, could see and sense ghosts. It took me sometime to believe this. I researched the topic of earthbound spirits and then I wrote this book.

My sons antics have inspired many of my stories. I also get inspired when I travel.

"Enki's Quest" is a series of three books for 9 - 12 year olds. Only after the hero is captured by warriors from another galaxy does he realize that his life on Earth is a rest and relaxation incarnation. He is actually the legendary warrior, Enki, from Orbis, his home planet.

Keep writing and improving.
Rely on a few trusted readers and don't take criticism personally.
Leave your story in a drawer for at least three months and then begin the editing process again.
If you self publish, use a professional editor.

Getting feedback from readers is the best thing about being a writer, especially when a story has a special meaning for a reader.
Having flexibility in my work day is also a great thing about being a writer. If I want to take my dogs for a walk or have lunch with friends, then I do.

Writer's block isn't something that I've ever experienced. I have always had lots of story ideas floating around in my head.
A few times I have spent quite awhile working on an idea and then I realize the idea just isn't good enough for me to turn it into a worthwhile story.
