BOOK: *** &quot;DEVIL DRUM&quot;***:Deaf Linda never believed in praying or listening to the Dead; but, alone within the eerie silence of the 'Trophy Room,'  she felt petrified  by the ***Devil Drum*** playing unaided on the  wall as it forced out wild screams from the stuffed animals, and  that one shape-changed man.

I consider myself new to writing, a creative writer able to write in all genres. 
The short story is easy and I've published in many countries around the world my ss , poems and flash fiction as well as prose pieces.
I've a collection of short stories in the surreal vein called Moondust.They need to be read: One at a time, please.
Then my latest project is Billabongo, a fantasy novel.
 I've been a featured writer in Dog Blessing, currently No 10 in the Hardback Best Sellers chart for America. I've been a semi-finalist in the 2008 William Faulkner Award for an anthology. I've also ventured into 'Sound Printing' with an audiobook. Some of my children stories have been recorded for the blind listeners overseas. Always more...]]></about>  <influences><![CDATA[Conan Doyle;  Leslie Charteris; D.H.
