My first novel, Sons In The Clouds, is set in my hometown and its two main characters are loosely based on myself and my best friend from childhood. There is an aviation theme woven within the pages and my career as a commercial pilot was helpful in developing that aspect. I'm also a military history buff and this novel is also set during the war in Vietnam.

My forthcoming novel, The Luck Inside Me. It's a story of hope, unexpected wealth, divine inspiration, and a life miraculously changed from the depths of obscurity.

The flexibility to allow your inner self to be shown on paper. To explore emotions you never realized existed. To share with the world your personal creativity.

Do things which still creativity. For myself, I listen to music, watch intriguing movies or television dramas which have deeply moving, interesting plots.
