Published author of 17 novels, mostly LGBTQ+. I want to explore alternate lifestyles from stories from the past to understand the world today.
My quest to write scripts began long before the Internet made it possible to write anywhere. It required moving to Hollywood. So I bought a bus ticket and hit LA. There I learned to write screenplays while exploring LA's underbelly where the real stories lie.
