About Me

I'm a writer / salesman hybrid. My debut novel "The Black Flame" is now available from many good bookstores. Possibly some of the crap ones too. Hurrah.
WWW.robmackellar.com for details.
I also like cake.
Thanks to Steve Mason...

Which Action Hero Would You Be? v. 2.0
created with QuizFarm.com
You scored as Captain Jack Sparrow

Roguish,quick-witted, and incredibly lucky, Jack Sparrow is a pirate who sometimes ends up being a hero, against his better judgement. Captain Jack looks out for #1, but he can be counted on (usually) to do the right thing. He has an incredibly persuasive tongue, a mind that borders on genius or insanity, and an incredible talent for getting into trouble and getting out of it. Maybe its brains, maybe its genius, or maybe its just plain luck. Or maybe a mixture of all three.
