In 1996, after a devistating let down in my life, I literally placed all of my stories in a closet and walked away from writing for 22 years. Then in November 2017, after reading a sad revelation on Facebook made by an old high school sweetheart, I decided to start working on my autobiography.
At the time, I didn't consider what I was doing as "writing", because it wasn't fiction, but after 10 months of heartbreaking effort in compiling my life story, I decided to post excerpts of it online on a Facebook page meant for people who grew up in my old hometown of Bellmawr, NJ, to get feedback. The response to it was both surprising and overwhelming. Many of those who had read my life story also wanted to know if I still wrote fiction.
After much encouragement, I wrote my very first original short horror story, THE THING IN THE OLD HOUSE and posted it online in October 2018. The response to it was unbelievable, considering I had given up the dream of ever writing again.
Motivated by the reviews of those who had read my story, I decided to write another one. This time, I looked for volunteers to let me use their real name, where I would then write a story around them as something supernatural hunted them down and killed them.

Three women were brave enough to step up.

It was at this point, I decided to create an anthology of horror stories around my old hometown called SPINE-TINGLING TALES FROM BELLMAWR NJ.
Those 3 stories were:
FEAR
ROAD KILL
& ASYLUM

Each connected to the one that came before and with each new story, came new fans. From there I just continued to write, nearly one short story a month.

GASP!
THE SACRIFICE
TERROR
NAIL BITER
TAKE OUT
DEAD IN THE WATER
BLOOD BAG

The very last story I completed for 2019 was my first NON Horror Christmas story entitled:
AULD LANG SYNE.

Now, as I enter 2020, I have begun writing my 8th short horror story for my anthology series called FALLING APART.
