Welcome to my site. If you’re looking for my blog, just click here “Blog.” This site is intended for those who have read one of my novels, an article, or posting on one of the social websites such as Twitter or Facebook and want to know more about me. There is nothing for sale here that I will benefit from. However, I plan from time to time to recommend something I’ve read that I found entertaining or useful and give you a link to it – usually on Amazon. See the “Book Table” page for what is current. The photo you see at the top of every page was taken in early June from my deck facing South. The fields are in bloom with wildflowers.
If you are new to this site, please visit my Who I am page. It explains how this site came about and you will get a chance to look at my tombstone. I am not going to write an autobiography here. First, my memory is not good enough to remember details such as what I had for lunch on September 9, 1948 – that was a Thursday. The things that will end up here are things I remember and for some reason are important to me. Second, I am addicted to writing and had to support my writing habit, which means I have done a wide variety of things in my life first just to eat and then support a family. I will talk about those too. Thirdly, I have gotten quite an education in life. Some of it even formal such as the MFA degree I have. I would label most of those things as musings. However, some of them are very practical. For example, why was I taught to sharpen the two sides of a double bit axe in different ways. Some are just my opinion. Look around and enjoy yourself!
New addition – because I am a writer and people have asked about my novels, I have added the last couple of them to the Book Table page. None of the earlier novels are currently in print.
NEW NOVEL
I have completed another novel, For the Love of a Woman. This one has to be number eight or nine, but I have published two novels using Kindle and I am currently looking for a publisher for the mystery novels, Darkhouse Lure, and this one is also a mystery. Billy is very much like a narrative biography. It follows Billy from just after high school in the 1950s until the 1980s. We see him at his best and at his worst. We meet his true love and failed loves. We meet his family. My proofreaders have called it a “great soap opera.” I take that as a compliment since isn’t all of our lives a series of ups and downs? That’s one of the reasons that soap operas are successful.
