Stories have always fascinated me. Books, television, radio and games always drawn me in the most with intricate stories. Or even just a good romp like the old Godzilla movies.

I enjoy twist endings in shows like The Twilight Zone. When I write something with a little twist I wonder “What would happen if things when that-a-way instead?” Curiosity also drives my writing in all genres, but especially science fiction. What if my characters lived in a world affected by certain traits, societal changes, geography or hardships? And what would they do when pressed to survive?

In the end it’s about building a world that the characters live in and sharing their experiences. The quirky, the diverse and the unusual can be as much in my stories as much as folks just trying to live and let live. 

I hope you enjoy my stories!
