At the tender age of eight, I wrote my first sappy song lyrics to other people's music. By my late teens,  I had  graduated to morbid poetry and political essays.

In switching to journalism in college, I discovered a whole new medium  to shock, offend and otherwise annoy a broader range of people than the poor friends that I had previously inflicted my poetry on.

I continued my journalist endeavors freelancing for various community, major daily and national publications.

In addition to writing feature and short scripts, I write in the Anvil Press 3-day novel contest each year.

For the brave, writing samples are sprinkled throughout this site.
