About Me

Me? Well, there's a lot I could say. But here is what I think people will be most interested in. I'm a male (if you've seen the photo, you've figured that much out) who is happily married, three wonderful kids, and a Christian.I'm an author. I enjoy writing fantasy and science fiction stories. I've several short stories, flash fiction, and poetry in print at various on-line/print magazines . I also am managing editor at Haruah: A Breath of Heaven mainstream/literary fiction magazine. On top of that, I do a monthly podcast of space opera goodness at Ray Gun Radio .Then in my spare time, I actually write! Check out my author web site for the most recent news and information on what's happening in that realm.Thanks for checking out my stuff.
