Hi Rita. Thank you for accepting my JF invitation. You're welcome to come read some of my work sometime. You can read it all for free even though I sell the books too. Some businessman I am, huh? :-D

Keep on producin'. I have been somewhat stuck in a community role with children/mentoring. So, I've finally slowed down a bit since Christmas and now have been writing again. Someday, I hope my works are picked up and used for positive reinforcements for a naughty country. That's how I've been. ... more

Hey Rita! Say, thanks for the invite. It sounds as if you have a very deep and monumental piece of literature coming out in December 2007 for America. Kids are forgetting so much of the past; it's inspiring to know that some folks still care about how the past is an important part of our future. ... more

Hi Rita
For 10 years or so I wrote educational/information material for non-profit organisations, but my primary focus now is to write children's fiction and non-fiction.
