David DeGeorge is the author of various published short stories, several of which were finalists in writing contests. His first novel, Friendship, is a coming of age story. He's since had Internment, a psychological suspense novel, Chalktrauma, a horror novel, The Chair, a chiller, and Accounting for Clues, a mystery, published. If he's not writing or drawing, he's reading (with, as John D. MacDonald said, either grinding envy or weary contempt) or he's talking with/visiting his nieces. Read some of his short stories, excerpts of the novels, and background information on the stories and novels at his website, www.daviddegeorge.com
