I was born In Walnut Creek Calif. In Feb.1963 I lived in Pleasant Hill, Ca all my life-up to about 19 years of age. My mom wrote poetry, but I didn’t start to write poetry till I was 18 years old and wrote a poem for my wife. My favorite books back in the days where Charlotte's Web and Where the Red fern Grows. From writing Poetry Many, Many over the years, it branched out to writing riddles. Then I included Fiction books.

I wrote my first book Modern Poetry, for my old schools library at the request of the principle. I made the book by scratch. Kids loved it.

I then wrote a riddle book called The What Am I? Book, and tested in a few class rooms from kindergarten and first grade. Kids loved it-even with out pictures. So I wrote about model rocketry since I’ve been doing it for over 20 years and gave rocket demos for two schools. From here I’ve written many stories for children. It took me 12 years to find an illustrator- A parent at my school was doing signs for the carnival at my school and I asked her to do my book in 2005, then I found my other illustrator on-line in Marietta, Georgia. Mrs. Diane Carter of Sam101.com. This was for The What am I? Bugs. I liked it so much I let her do The Nest That Could Fly. Once my first became public I decided to do book signing at my school and at the day care next door. I’ve done seven So far.
Why I write? I love to hear children laugh & Giggle at my stories. It’s a neat feeling I get
Deep down inside. I used to be shy and very nervous, but, after seeing the kids laugh and being them self’s - silly at times during a story, not anymore

Money made I’m donating $1.00 of my profits to two local schools.
I figure they the (P.T.A) need it badly.
