Stretching rigid limbs. Emerging. Rising. Ravenous ...

Time for the writer to get up from the computer and grab something to eat. Maybe a whey shake. Big into those once a day now.

Eclectic writer. Nice phrase, if a bit stuffy. Basically, I write what strikes me as interesting. That encompasses general fiction, historical, heroic fantasy, horror, and now mystery. Goal is to make it entertaining for the reader as well, as the writing entertains me.

Fiction writing each day helps keep the demons at bay. October, 2001 saw the publication of novel Dark Resurrection. D.R. has been revised and re-released by Samhain Publishing in 2007. No'th Kackalaki is home. Day job takes the form of IT analyst while the writer does his best to balance family life with his need to write. Other works are in the marketing queue, and the first volume of the RHONE Chronicles, heroic fantasy about a man of mixed blood confronting a crazed god, is now complete and seeking a publisher. As is a general fiction / literary piece on the downfall and subsequent rise of a man with Alzheimer's disease. Also, a modern-historical fiction novel about a modern-day Vicent van Gogh.
