Who I Am

I am a believer and follower of Jesus. I am a husband, married 23 years to my wonderful wife, and a father of two amazing children, adopted from Guatemala and South Korea. I am the youngest of four siblings, with one older sister and two older brothers. I am a self-taught programmer and software architect by trade, who also has a degree in journalism with a writing background.

I self-published my first book on Amazon KDP, a collection of fantasy and science fiction short stories called “The Stars Will Fall, which is available on Kindle and in paperback. My second book, a collection of fantasy and science fiction short stories called “Voices from the Deep”, is available wherever books are sold.

I Published Another Book

My collection of fantasy and science fiction short stories, Voices from the Deep, is now available for purchase wherever fine books around the world are sold! It’s being released under my new imprint Red Giant Press. Included in the collection are thirty-two short stories and five original black and white illustrations drawn by me. I put a lot of effort…

Genre

The fiction I write is speculative and will fall into the category of fantasy and science fiction. Occasionally, I will dazzle you by throwing in a few cross-genre thrills and mystery. My primary intent is to entertain, regardless of what I write.

The section Liminal Spaces is for sharing personal observations about life's transitional states. It’s often humorous and always reflective, an opportunity to share about life in between the accomplishments and milestones.

People

A wayward journalism graduate who chose writing code over writing obituaries. Both can be deadly depending on who you ask. A Jesus follower, husband, father, brother and fellow human. I'm making broad assumptions I've not yet gone interstellar.
