Music I listen to

I listen to a little bit of everything, but when I'm writing, the tone of the work is the tone of the music. I listened to a lot of thrash metal and goth stuff when I was writing Turf War, Bluegrass for His Haunted eyes and country for Best Left Buried. I love Peter Gabriel and Kate Bush But I'm also a fan of Fat's Waller, Robert Johnson and even some Cheb Mami. I'm all over the place, really.

Interesting facts about me

I've never met a writer who could write anything about themselves. When I ask my Muse to help me with one of these things, she shoves her little upturned nose in the air and wheels around in a rush of pink Tulle to stalk to the other room and sulk. Which she's just done, actually. Autobiography is somehow etherially insulting, so I guess your stuck with just me.

First, I'm dyslexic so bare with me. I've driven across America about 8 times. I've worked a lot of Science Fiction conventions. I've worked for Baker & Taylor and Barnes and Noble, as well as a lot of indy bookstores. I'm currently experimenting with some of the strategies that work for print books and applying them to e-books - for obvious reasons.
Let's see, I'm a Unitarian Universalist - which means I am required, by my religion to tolerate everyone. I am not only tolerant of other people, I'm fascinated by them. I've spent my life studing various religions, behavior (I like to figure out why people do what they do and am an adherent to the New Thought movement as much as I chain myself to any movement.

For the weird stuff (oh, and there's weird stuff) I've survived a car fire, stopped a rock concert, been a professional shoplifter, sung semi professionally, met some of the kids from Charlie and the Chocolate Factory (Veruca is still beautiful, Mike is actually a nice guy), got my nose pierced in Haight Ashbury and almost gotten thrown off Alcatraz Island.

I hope to someday build a hobbit house in the country with lots of animals and a huge garden, go to Jerusalem and maybe Damascus (History buff), knock on the Tor In Ashbury, See some coptic shrines in Africa and maybe some Masai and free range animals there, too, stand on the Great Wall and look up into space at the satellite and get my picture taken!, and walk the Thousand Steps (Or at least try to). I want to lounge on a boat in the Med and see some sunken stuff.

About me. I am relentlessly cheerful, an annoying morning person and have a rude sense of humor.

There more, but I don't want to bore you. :)
