The Beginning
At a very young age I fell in love with the written word. My first experience with real novels was in the form of Readers Digest Condensed books. I read cover to cover Louis L’Amour, Vina Delmar and dozens of other well know authors of the 50s and 60s.
Over time, I found dollar novels and half priced book stores. My favorite displays at Borders and B&N were the discount racks. I built a substantial library of scifi, romance, mystery, and horror, from Nora Roberts to Stephen King. Reading continues to be one of my greatest joy.
A story is built around “what-if” and the fact has fascinated me for years. So much so I began imagining myself being the one answering the question in a tale of my own.
My current project “Torn Apart” has evolved out of the “what-ifs” in today’s world. Scientist are manipulating viruses in an efforts to control and redefine the natural world. I imagine this could result in a disease that is more horrendous and deadly than any ever imagined? Even Ebola.
