Writing has always been a part of my life. My first novel, written when I was still a teenager in highschool, is still stored in my basement, in a carton box - all 1,600 pages of it.

Background

These days I'm still liable to introduce myself as an engineer rather than a writer...guess it's becuase I still haven't learned how to respond or react to what comes next - raised brows and questions. But writer I am, and I have 2 novels with Cambridge Books/ebooksonthe.net published in paperback and e-format to prove it, one that's bound to come out soon with New Concepts Publishing,another contracted to NCP for release in 2008 and one also to come out soon with Ellora's Cave. But I still tend to just stick a bookmark in a person's hand as a reply. It's so much easier to say I'm an engineer than I'm a writer.

A bit about me
Cold Scheme
When a Baltimore homicide detective stops at a convenience store and five minutes later walks out to find a dead man sprawled across the hood of her car, she assumes he’s been shot. The reasonable assumption is the worst one she’s ever made in her ten-year career as a cop. In the next twenty four hours, Meg Stanton’s carefully constructed identity as a cop and mother threatens to fall apart because the victim is a broken link in a brutal, inhuman control scheme. And she has no idea she is its key element.
The Cracked Shadow
Gina is a mass-murder survivor and spent ten years institutionalized. She lives in a transition house, under psychiatric supervision. She’s being stalked.
If she goes to the police she might get locked up again. If she doesn’t, she might be the next victim. So she goes. And finds something she knows absolutely nothing about…sex…and love.
