Veteran’s Day 2022
Reblogged from Aurora Jean Alexander’s blog “Writer’s Treasure Chest“…
Originally from Levittown NY, I currently reside somewhere along the coast in California with my wife/co-author Helen.
A lot of my creativity was born from my lifelong love of science fiction and horror. As a child I grew up on the original Dark Shadows, The Twilight Zone, The Outer Limits, Doctor Who (which I still follow) and Anime.
A few of my favorite authors are HP Lovecraft, Jane Austen, Robert Asprin, Jodi Lynn Nye, Stephen King, Richard Matheson, Isaac Asimov, Ray Bradbury, Edgar Allan Poe, and so many more.
However, I do not spend all our time sitting behind a desk writing. I like to get out and try new things. We also like to explore new places, sometimes with family or friends. I've gotten plenty of ideas thanks to these adventures. I like to draw from personal experience because I feel it lends a bit of authenticity to a story and its characters. Which is probably why Helen and I still love to attend conventions which involve sci-fi, fantasy, anime, comics, you name it. Yes, we are Geeks and proud of it.

I know, I know, I haven’t even put out “The Ship” yet, and I’m already working on another book? Well, I’m waiting for feedback from some of my beta-readers who are going over “The Ship” so there’s not much I can do on that front at the moment. And it felt so darn weird, sitting…

And here is part 2 of “My Setting Is Changing”. This time we’re starting to say farewell to some very close friends…
Recently I had a rather loud and unexpected reminder from life, that I am physically not the same person I was 10 years ago. I’m not saying that old age is catching up to me, although it does give me the occasional reminders that many of us experience (like your body sounding like a bowl…
