: About Me

I have been through life's turmoils and tribulations many times and sometimes, those lead to inspirations of stories and poetry that I have written. After a 22 yr marriage that went bad, I decided to move on with my life and write the novel I have always wanted to write. Now after two years, it is complete and I hope that it becomes a bestseller.

I have three daughters that I love very much, but in life, it has been hard to learn to become the father they expect me to be. I am trying my best to be that as well, while going on with the life I chose with a new family. I love the woman I am with now and she has made my life complete. I am much happier.

I am 51 years old and have been writing since I was a teenager. I work in law enforcement and see all types of people day in and day out. I enjoy writing, bowling, fishing, camping, and drawing. That is me so far in a nut shell.

My passion is ...

To be on the New York TImes Best Sellers list

I know too much about ...

Nobody can know too much about anything, but less about most.

My parents always told me ...

Mama always told me "Do as I say do, not as I do."

My childhood ambition ...

To be able to just be kind to all and be able to receive in return

My favorite memory ...

My dog I had as a child named Lad.

Why I write ...

I write from the heart and not the head, to show my expressions, the ambition I have, and the motivation of the words on paper that keep me going.

What I am reading/watching/listening to ...

I read James Patterson books, I watch little t.v., listen to country music

My first job ...

My security that brings home the bacon, but my first job is my determination to get my first novel written in hopes that it will be a best seller.

My best moment ...

My best moment came in my life when I saw each of my three daughters being born.

My inspiration ...

Everyday life, dreams, the love of my life, and just the simple things.

Creative Writing > Poetry Poetry: Christmas during wartime

If I Can't Be Home For Christmas I may be over here in Iraq Trying to settle a score, But I am not the one That started this here war. If I can't be home for Christmas Then I just wanted you to know, I'll send all of my love home to you  And wrap it with a bow. I'll try my best to be there To see the kids open their gifts, And just maybe walk through the door And give your heart a lift. But just in case something happens And I can't grant all of your wishes, I'll send all of my love home to you If I can't be home for Christmas. Give the kids a hug for me And let them know that they ar...
