About Me

Click below to find all my books in one place -- covers, blurbs, publishers' pages with excerpts, and purchasing information. Thanks!I began writing prenatally. Sacred to profane to paranormal pretty much describes the range of my fiction. (I suppose it could also describe my life.) As an author for Ellora's Cave, Loose Id, Cerridwen Press, Samhain Publishing, Double Dragon Publishing, MojoCastle Press, and Changeling Press, I've given my creative impulses free rein. Like the great Willy Wonka as played by the great Gene Wilder, I do believe there is no place anywhere that compares with the worlds created and explored by the imagination.

My books, both currently available and scheduled to be released, are below. Click on the publisher's name (in blue) to get to the book's page, where you'll find a blurb and free excerpt. NOW YOU WILL HAVE TO CLICK ON THE LONG URL ON THE MYSPACE "WARNING" PAGE. (You know, the one that says, "OMG, you're about to leave! Are you sure you want to leave our tidy universe?") Believe me, clicking on the damned URL won't make your computer blow up.

My Interests

I'd like to meet:

A whole lot of people who are dead...and not because I'm a necrophile. I'd also love to meet film-maker Michael Moore, whom I've deeply admired since I saw Roger & Me. He seems like just the kind of blue-collar, no-bullshit guy a Milwaukee tavern brat could relate to!
I DON'T WANT TO MEET: People who fancy themselves seductive and like to show off their freakin' body parts. Take them elsewhere.
