Author bio:

I'm a mid-life writer. Having tried and failed miserably to write fiction in my youth, I've come back to it now with more perspective, experience, and at last an understanding of what it means to tell a story with depth, characterization, and "Show, don't Tell." People tell me I give great crits, too, so I'm also available as a freelance editor / book-doctor, having appeared many in that capacity at the PNWA Summer Writer's Conference.
