About the author

I'm a veteran journalist and recently published my first novel, Danuta. The novel was inspired by the real-life saga of a Polish girl who, in 1941, was arrested by the Soviet secret police and sent with her infant son to a labor camp in Siberia.

The early years of my journalism career were devoted to investigative work, chasing crooked cops and drug dealers. After marriage and parenthood, I switched to a tamer career reporting on businesses and corporate executives. My wife found lawsuits preferable to death threats.

Now, we live in Austin, Texas, where I help my wife with her consulting practice, walk the dog, babysit our two grandchildren, and work on my second novel. This one's a contemporary story, set in Florida, where I lived and worked for more than 25 years. Stay tuned. I'll have it ready for publication in a year or two.

Reviews

[Robert D. Cornwall · Rating 5 out of 5]

It was written a long time ago, but it remains an excellent Mainline Protestant exposition of the Holy Spirit and the Gifts of the Spirit.
