EXTENDED BIO
My fave music group is the Beatles, followed closely by Michael Jackson. I also listen to alternative music of all decades: Alice Cooper, Adam Ant, STP, Lincoln Park, Toadies, Tool. In addition to music and writing, I love art -- both viewing it and creating it in all types of media. In 2006, one of my short stories, The Breakfast Companion, was published by Gerwina Dunwich in her book entitled "Phantom Felines and other Ghostly Animals", available at Amazon.com. I have written reviews (visit Goodreads.com) of most of Kathy Reichs' murder mystery novels (she helps produce the TV series "Bones").
