Bio
I found out (relatively) late in life that I love writing. I'm still working out my creative kinks, but enjoy the telepathy of communicating a visual story through writing (credit to Steven King for the illustration).

Coming of age under a pear tree
We’re more than halfway to the Outer Banks on our annual summer trip, but boy it’s dragging. The original plan was to try a new beach every year. But love can cause a twelve-year-old to throw the type of tantrum that forces a whole extended family into going back to the same beach each year.

A DARK NIGHT OF THE SOUL
"Leadership of hundreds of people. Countless counseling sessions. More graduate degrees than I've ever seen on a resume. I gotta be honest with you, Mike. You're quite overqualified for this job. What is that, fifteen years as a church pastor? Why are you changing careers now?"

Duke
Duke is a beast of beasts. He has got to be one of the largest creatures to ever roam this God-blessed world. Pure muscle. It's fun to watch children see him for the first time and jump backward. Some dare to try to touch him, but he doesn't let them. And he sure is a dirty son of a bitch. Regardless of the terrain, you can always smell him before you see him. But he is sweet and gentle, and easy to love.
