I have written stories since I was in high school and amazed myself by getting an A on a short story I handed in for my creative writing class. I figured maybe I had found a skill in myself that I would want to explore and also discovered an enjoyable pastime in the process. Most of what I wrote has never seen the light of day due to self doubts and computer memory crashes, but I have had several essays published in The Colorado Leader. Timeline marks my debut novel.
