Illusion of Luck, the third book in the Greg Tenorly Mystery Series, by Robert Burton Robinson.
Synopsis:As Greg Tenorly was about to marry the woman of his dreams, he figured he was the luckiest man in the world. Until he got an anonymous phone call warning him about his bride’s shady past.
Larry had been lucky all his life. He had everything he could possibly want. Except a publishing contract. So, the fact that his first six mystery novels had been rejected did not dissuade him from starting on book seven. Ironically, he finally found success when he began to publish an online account of his own downward spiral into depravity and murder.
Is luck real? Or is it just an illusion? Some people have to find out the hard way.

Hideaway Hospital Murders, the second book in the Greg Tenorly Mystery Series, by Robert Burton Robinson.
Synopsis:The small East Texas town of Coreyville is shaken by brutal murders and kidnappings, striking too close to home for Greg Tenorly. And the only witness is a mentally ill neighbor whose remarks are rejected by the police as unreliable. But Greg listens carefully to the man’s seemingly incoherent statements, and later realizes that they just might contain enough clues to point him in the direction of the killer.
But his investigation leads him into a hornet’s nest of dark secrets, old grudges, jealousy, and greed. Now, caught in the crossfire between two families, Greg’s life is in serious jeopardy.
By morning, more bodies will be headed for the morgue. The only question is whether Greg Tenorly will be among them.

Bicycle Shop Murder, the first book in the Greg Tenorly Mystery Series, by Robert Burton Robinson.
Synopsis: Greg Tenorly lives a quiet and lonely life in a small East Texas town, until he is selected as a juror for a murder trial. A beautiful, mysterious redhead befriends him, and seems to have a romantic interest. But is she merely using him to influence the outcome of the trial?
By the end of the first week, three people connected with the case are dead, and Greg is beginning to fear for his own life. He is now convinced that a powerful Dallas attorney is directing the murder spree in his little town. But why? He is determined to find out. But his investigation just might earn him a spot at the top of the hit list.

My Interests

YOGA
I highly recommend Journey Into Power by Baron Baptiste.

I follow Baron's yoga routine (as closely as I can), doing an hour session at least three times per week, and it has done wonders for me.


I'd like to meet:

Fiction writers and readers.

Music:

Listen to some of my original songs. It's me playing guitars, keyboard, electonic drums, etc., and singing. These are not profession recordings -- I recorded them in my little home studio just for fun:

Listen - You Don't Love Me Too
Listen - Everybody Knows .. Listen - Lynda
Listen - When You Smile .. Listen - She Never Knew
Listen - I Went Online
Listen - Mr. Tough Guy (instrumental)
Listen - Cool Breeze on a Warm Summer Night (instrumental)

And for those of you who enjoy classical music, here are some selections from my 1979 Senior Recital (vocal):

Listen - Eternal Life
Listen - Di Provenza il mar il suol
Listen - Non Posso Disparar
Listen - German Song Cycle
Listen - Thus Saith the Lord
Listen - Pieta Senior
Listen - French Song Cycle
Listen - 23rd Psalm
Listen - Sleep Now
Listen - The Flea
Listen - Postcard from Spain
