<p>I am a writer and self-involved artist who's lived in London and Honolulu, and a dozen places in-between. I've also traveled around the world, and some of my artwork has been purchased by collectors.<br/><br/>I also used to write screenplays and have won numerous awards for them...despite none being produced. That's how A Place of Safety began life—as an idea for one, twenty-five years ago. But it deepened and expanded and changed direction and became the life of an Irish Catholic boy during the Troubles in Northern Ireland. I'm currently working on a gothic horror novel dealing with an ancient tale of harpies that live in the caves of the Cliffs of Moher, on Ireland's far west coast.<br/><br/>In my writing, I've tried to build characters as vivid and real as possible and have a lot of fun doing it...mixed with angst, anger, amazement…and sometimes vicious arguments with the characters in each book. I like to think I've done well by them.<br/><br/>My books are available through Amazon, B&N, BAM!, Powell's Books, and your local independent book shop.</p>
