I am a writer who "exercises" my skills by creating fanfiction based on Jane Austen's Pride and Prejudice and the television show Lost.

I am the editor and publisher of the literary magazine Ancient Paths. My poetry had been published in AIM, The Lyric, The Penwood Review, The Bible Advocate, and the Tucumcari Literary Review. My collected verse is available in a volume titled A Greater Sound By Far. My short stories have appeared in Raconteur and The First Line. I also work as a freelance editor who helps writers prepare their manuscripts for self-publication.

My Lost fanfiction often features a wide cast of characters, but the character of Sayid is my primary focus. I write drama and romance, with some forays into the action genre. I also seek to develop the secondary character of Nadia in several of my stories, including Solitary (Retold), Escape, and Courtship.

My Jane Austen fanfiction consists primarily of short romantic stories exploring the relationship of Mr. Darcy and Elizabeth. Since Jane Austen's writing is in the public domain, I have also been able to publish a full length sequel to Pride and Prejudice. My novel Conviction may be purchased from Amazon and other online retailers.

Happy reading!
