Hello and welcome to my humble little abode. I don’t actually live here, though, that would be impossible. And odd. It could turn into an Oscar-winning screenplay, though. Let me ponder the possibility. Also, I will stop using the word though.

Everyone is creative and artistic in one way or another. From the placement of a porcelain clown on a coffee table to the planting of a tulip instead of a boxwood shrub by the front porch - we all make creative decisions every single day of our lives. I’ve decided to take these decisions one or two or sixteen steps further.

Small steps for me began when I was a child. Writing on my old manual typewriter and putting on shows in the family garage next to the weed-eater that leaked gas were the first of many steps that led me to my current state of creativity: finishing my fourth novel while traipsing around on stages or in front of cameras.

Thank you for visiting my page and understanding I don’t actually live here.
