The Stranger
Her life isn’t what she expected. At 31, she’s returned to her home town of Plainsboro, Alabama, her daughter on her hip. She’s stuck in a dead-end job selling real estate, just making ends meet, with the help of her family. Her life is turned upside down when a rich, enigmatic stranger walks through her door. His past is elusive – his behavior both clumsy and, at times, thoughtful. Thrown together by a worldwide storm, together they attempt to save who they can, and defend themselves and her daughter. Forced to confront his past, she tries to learn if she can really ever trust The Stranger.

Hey, where you been?
So, I’m not dead. At least, not yet.
It’s been a while, and I wanted to let you, my faithful readers, know that I am back. Back to writing, back to crafting a few words.
There will be more coming soon, so keep an eye out.
Thanks,
Mike

Why you become a writer?
Some people ask me why I became a writer. In my opinion, that's like asking Hank Williams Jr. why he drinks? It's an easy question to answer – because I enjoy it.
It's not that writing is easy or even pleasurable at times. The fear of the blank page affects me just like it strikes fear in the hearts of every freshman student out there who gets a writing assignment. But the difference is that I don't give up. Lord knows I find ways to procrastinate. That's what I'm doing right now, as I write this I have another window open on my PC with half a scene written.

Post-Apocapalooza!
I recently took part in a series of author interviews done by Noah K. Mullette-Gillman. He has interviewd many new self published authors, and is a self published post-apocoliptic author himself.
Today, he is publishing seven author interviews, all related to the post apocalyptic genre, and your truly is included. I suggest that you read all the interviewed, as all of the authors bring a different perspective to the subject.

Working Title: Terminal Flight - A Work in process
Here is an excerpt from a new work. Comments are welcome.
Delta Flight 1283 from Atlanta to Chicago
Friday, November 26 - 3:42 p.m. Central Standard Time
27,000 feet above Tennessee
Passengers sat in the crowded Airbus A319 like cattle. All but a hand full of the 124 seats were occupied by passengers making the short return flight from Atlanta to Chicago during the holiday rush. The flight crew all wore the same haggard expression of the season, a vain attempt to please the unruly masses.
