About Me

I'm an American writer living in Cabo San Lucas, Mexico. I write novels, memoirs, poetry, press releases, short stories of literary fiction, and everything else in between. Basically I'm busy living out my greatest dreams in this magnificent luxury vacation destination, this ethereal oasis at land's end. To be specific, other than a few lurid days visiting foreign countries like the United States and Caribbean islands like Nevis, I have not left Baja California Sur in the last four years, where I have been writing and publishing in paradise, just minutes from the famous arch where the Pacific Ocean kisses the Sea of Cortez. I'm fortunate enough to be able to envision heaven on earth every single morning when I wake up and witness this exquisite land's end ocean view from my house in Cabo. Los Cabos is a majestic oceanic playground on the edge of the earth. The seductive allure of this tropical aquatic desert enchants me. I also write journalism articles for various magazines and newspapers in the United States and abroad. My journalism articles can be found in every bookstore in the United States. My stories can be found in many of the world's best literary magazines. My prose is poetic, my flows are mellifluous. I aspire to stay creative, inspired, produce great work consistently, and entertain my readers. My only ultimate goal is the fortuitous attainment of riches and fame, so I am about to blow up.

I'd like to meet:

Interesting people from different cultures throughout the world. I speak Spanglish fluently and love meeting new people. I encourage you all to follow your dreams and find a meaningful way to make a lucrative living doing what you love. I’m thankful every day that I never gave up and kept pursuing my ambitions at all costs, envisioning the impossible, writing, believing in myself when everybody else didn't, achieving something amazing after wasting years with my life, and it seems to have finally all paid off. Though I still remember those many livid nights when I had nothing but my dreams, times when I had no money, and subsequently ate nothing for a couple days. When becoming a professional writer, an illegal immigrant, or even getting published and making money was just another elaborate and majestic vision; a penniless reverie of a pipe dream. No man alive has witnessed struggles I’ve survived, but with unmitigated commitment and perseverance everything eventually came into fruition and my dreams came true. My message to my unpretentious and indisputable friends is to believe in your dreams. My life in this Mexican paradise is living proof and testament that you can achieve and accomplish absolutely anything that you set your mind and heart toward if you just never stop working, believing, and following your dreams. The sky is the Limit!Myspace sucks, so find me on facebook. I won't ever check this crap again so don't even bother leaving me a comment.
