About Me

New York born, Seattle raised, Atlanta reborn, Cali's my current domain. Sports enthusiast, avid reader, moviegoer, music lover, minor art admirer, curious and open to life's experiences. Am always interested in objective truth and honesty, not one's own subjective reality. Single by circumstance, if not by choice. As the only constant in life is change, consider me to always be a work in progress.

I am a professional screenwriter, movie critic (THE REEL DEAL: Reviewz from the Street), publisher (JCM Books), and the author of the novels EVER AFTER (Random House/Villard, 2001), NEVA HAFTA (Random House/Villard, 2002), and I DO? (JCM Books, 2006).
