He is a music geek, still preferring vinyl to electronic forms of music, an avid reader and has recently jumped headfirst into the Ancestry craze.
His first novel, Twisted Ties, was published in 2014.
He has been blessed with a wife of 40+ years, two outstanding kids,
three rambunctious granddaughters,
and a never-ending string of insane rescue mutts.
The Not So Little Book of Cancer Caregiving was published tin 2023. It’s genesis grew out of personal experience as caregiver during my wife’s journey through brain cancer treatment.
Would you say it’s been a smooth road, and if not what are some of the biggest challenges you’ve faced along the way?
Smooth? Heck no. It’s a rollercoaster of ups and downs, good and bad, joy and grief. My biggest struggle was learning to take care of myself as a caregiver, giving my self breaks and downtime in which to recharge.
Can you tell our readers more about what you do and what you think sets you apart from others?

My career path resembles a Chutes and Ladders game on crack. It certainly has not been a straight path, bouncing from one thing to the next; trying everything.
We’d love to hear about any fond memories you have from when you were growing up?
