I'm not assuming that I'm great company.
But I've had a great deal of fun visiting with book clubs and groups of friends around the country over wine, cheese, spinach puffs, outrageous desserts ... and books, especially books.
That's why you should enter the 'CAGE OF STARS' contest, debuted by my publisher in honor of my novel published last month.
If you win, and there are only a few days to enter left, I'll come to your reading group (or your collection of friends; who has to know?) anywhere in the continental United States and bring wine, chocolate and signed copies of the novel for everyone. We'll spend the evening talking about this book, or any of my books, or any books you like.
Since I have friends and acquaintances in almost every state in the union, and there is pretty much nowhere I wouldn't like to re-visiit, please go to the main page and enter. I'll show up on time, I promise!

I happened by which to me nothing is by chance. Sorry I missed your contest, but I was set in awe reading your entire commentaries and short stories. A few years ago, I went into the hospital for a migraine something I have done for years however this time I came out with my life altered. I was shipped home a mere image of a person. Left on the door steps of my house to fan for myself. I feel God stood next to me although at the time, I didn't see and didn't want to see that he had a better plan for me than being a silent number of fatality.
It took years but I'm on my way back, however without the help of the Doctor who hid the fact that he and his nurse gave me the wrong IV sulution with an exploritory medication that he physcially forced on me. He sent me through agressive physcial theraphy when I wasn't able to speak, walk or make sense of it all. IF it hadn't been for my father Im sure I would have been dead. He insisted I have a Doctor from outside the hospital who., immediately saw they had left my spine open, where they had done too many spinal taps.
My records I was told were lost....
But GOD KNOWS... and since then has given me a desire to write. Something I never dreamed when I was younger. Writing along with painting are a great passion. GOD has sent me out, to spread the NewS HE loves US>> even when we fall; a certain place I was truly in before the tragedy.... but wonder if it took that for me to appreciate the little things again///?? I placed your web site on my desktop in the hope to always enjoy your writings.
Thank you,
for being you.
