About the author

I have been an artist the majority of my life, though not taking it seriously until I was twenty and trying to make it in the comic book world. Being self taught in charcoal and later moving to acrylic and oil paint, I have paintings and murals in homes, businesses and schools across the nation. It wasn't until I collaborated with a good friend on a book that he wanted to write that I decided to try my hand at writing as well. Starting out with a series about pirates (long before they were mainstream) I then began writing fan fiction online with my site Star Trek - Adventure, which included a crossover with several other sites entitled Star Trek Unity (which, as we believe, is still the largest crossover on the internet).
My current project, The Adventures of Phineas Frakture, was picked up by Bigworldnetwork.com and ran as a weekly series until it was released in print, ebook and audio on August 12, 2013. The continuing series, subtitle The Steam Wars, is currently running at BWN and should be published sometime next year.
