I am and always will be an artist, whether in the form of a musician, actor, painter or any of a number of directions life has taken me.I write dark romance suspense/thrillers born out of the more negative elements of life... and death. My newest work is In Death Do We Care.Me? I work and live in the mountains of Asheville, North Carolina, sometimes taking a pad and pen (remember those?) and heading up the trails, enjoying nature and finding places to contemplate, take in the beauty and write. Other times I visit the multitude of coffee shops in and around our small city to research material, write, edit, and people watch. Ah yes, I love the sweet smell and taste of fresh brewed coffee. It is a necessity of life in my opinion and it always seems to find a place within my stories.view less
