I’m proud of my four books that are currently available on JMS Books, Barnes and Noble and Amazon.

Here are four haiku to highlight the main protagonist’s experience: (links to purchase and more information are provided in the title)

Atonement: John

He’s holding my heart

In a story that runs fast

I hold on, but slip.

The Job: Joe

Cash is sweet, you’re more

To run with a cop, we have

Love: An act of God.

The Unlikely Bounty: Bo

I was taught to pace

Fast, time was a ‘poor’ monster.

love lost my fast feet.

The Space Between Us: Jack

Drought in New York finds

My heart, my mama is lost

From dirt roads I quit.
