I graduated from Bates College in Maine with a degree in English Literature. In my junior year, I studied in Oxford, England and travelled throughout Europe. I began writing fiction during a four-year enlistment in the US Air Force during the Vietnam War.

In 2012, I retired after working in the IT departments of several Boston financial companies. I live with my wife, Susan, north of Boston. We have two children and four grandchildren.

My first book Echo from Mount Royal won a 2016 Next Generation Indie Book Award for best novel. It is the story of a working-class 18-year-old girl and her strange romance with the son of a rich man in Montreal. An excerpt can be read on Amazon.

My second novel The Thief of Time Lost will be published in January 2019. The book is also available for readers on Bublish and, of course, Wattpad.
