I live in central Kentucky out in the country, on the side of a hill going down to a river. My daughter and I live by the garden of my story, Gnome Harvest.

I work professionally as a web developer. I have developed multiple websites and have written on technical topics related to web design. Gnome Harvest was my first attempt at a fiction novel.

I've always written off and on, and in the nineties I was involved in the international mail art scene, originating and published the Global Mail newsletter for five years. During this time, I also published multiple zines. I have an MFA in the visual arts.

I love to combine internal and external conflicts in my character driven stories. I enjoy writing fantasy because it sets me free to create my own universe and characters, apart from how they might appear in nature.

I belong to the Eagle Creek Writers' Group in Lexington, KY, and Online Writing Workshop for Science Fiction, Fantasy, and Horror. In the past, I have been a member of Writers Village and Critters Workshop.
