I was seventeen, still in high school, and working at the local library. As countless books passed through my hands, I was disappointed in the lack of well-written, clean fiction available for young adults. So when a story about a prestigious academy and the students who lived there wandered into my head one day as I was straightening shelves, I started writing it down.
I put the project on hold when I entered college to focus on term papers and exams, and later to begin a career. But the characters never really left my mind, and when I discovered an old copy of the manuscript nearly a decade later, I decided to finish it.

Got a projected release date for the follow-up to "The Crowd"? I had just finished a couple of shoot-em up thrillers, a Donald Trump, and an erotic submission, so I looked for a change of pace... And, boy, I found it!!! Wonderful... Read it in 2 sittings, would've finished it one, but I was exhausted and it fell out of my hand, so called it a night. Finished it this morning, caused me to oversleep Easter service!
