A little about myself as a starting point…
I began writing books several years ago because I, like many of you, have a few stories to tell. They accumulate in our minds the longer we live and the more experiences we have. During conversations with friends and people we might talk to at some point, we get asked about some things we did or were a party to, and so, the stories come out. Many of my tales were based on actual events I experienced as a young man.

There was a point in my life where seeing the world was a serious and powerful driving force. As a child in an orphanage, I dreamed of seeing many of the things I heard or read about. When I grew up, the desire to fulfill those adventures was still there, and I began doing many of the fantasies I wondered about so many times as a child. I wanted to become a pilot, and I did. I wanted to travel to foreign lands, and I did that too. I had a burning desire to join the military so that came about one day.

As a youngster, there was a TV adventure show on our one channel TV called,” I Search For Adventure.” It was always a lifelong dream to sail across the ocean. When I was thirty years old, I bought a 41’ sailboat, stocked it and headed out the Straights of Juan de Fuca from Seattle. I sailed around the South Pacific for a few years and eventually got that dream out of my system.

I wanted to learn how to fly an airplane, and I did. As an airplane pilot, I wanted to do many things, and I could get most of them done. I flew several makes of crop dusting airplanes in different parts of the world, as a Bush Pilot in Alaska, as a co-pilot for an airline company and as a Freight Transport Pilot in Africa.

I began working in the Rock and roll business as a Concert Producer. It happened by accident but there I was producing shows. It turned out to be successful for me until one day my genie in my head forced me to buy a sailboat, take off across the Pacific Ocean, and after several years of doing that I ran out of money and had to get a job. Along the way, I met a beautiful ballerina who seemed to want to take part in my adventures and she sailed across the ocean with me. She has been with me over 40 years so far.

Eventually, the boat was sold, I bought a house and went into business. I owned and operated several small businesses before retiring in 1999. After fifteen years of working, I sold everything I had and moved to Costa Rica Central America and have been here since. Today I operate another small business, I enjoy my three dogs, growing organic vegetables in my greenhouse and writing books. Once again thank you for visiting my page and hope you enjoy my books as they come out. Please contact me.

Warmest Regards,
