I started writing at age forty, and have been scribbling away ever since. I have published two novels "A Burning Obsession" and "The Muffin Mountain Motel Man." I have also published a memoir of the first seventeen years of my life, "Farewell to Innocence: how two timid kids survived their birth, their circumstances, and their parents." I recently finished "The Old Nitty Gritty of Life: how to get the most out of every day you live--no matter what", and "Short Stuff: a conglomeration of short stories, essays and poems." I'm hoping to publish them soon.
