| I was born in 1956, the second of five children. My earliest memories are of a half trailer, half conventional frame home in Englewood, FL. For entertainment we fished and explored the countryside, and at times when money was in short supply fish was our main source of food. In 1984, an accident left me confined to a wheelchair. Without the use of my legs, I was unable to continue my life's work as a custom cabinet builder. I needed a new profession, and later became a state certified Residential contractor; designed and built my own floor plans. In 2009, when the building industry took a downturn, and I decided to fulfill my dream to write. As a writer, I have found a new love, one more exciting than anything I have ever known before. When I write life into my characters I feel their happiness; and cry in their sorrows to bring the readers the best story possible. At fifty-five years of age hindsight has allowed me to count my many blessings. These range from an impoverished childhood, I would not trade for all the riches of the world, to Debra, my wife for now over thirty-eight years. From our marriage we have three children, and eight grandchildren. In Magic in the Moonlight, I share my faith in God, zest for life, and belief that for each ending there is also a new beginning. email: laserhomes@verizon.net |
