I'm a passionate advocate of the written word, both in terms of my own writing and empowering others to express themselves through writing. My biggest accolade to date as a writer is being a winner of Stephen King's 'On Writing' contest, from his wonderful memoir / writing guide of the same name. There were over a thousand entrants to this contest and only four winners. More recently, I have been flexing my editing skills as Co-Editor of 'Giant Beast Cinema' (23) and its predecessor, 'Giant Bug Cinema' (22), both published by BearManor Media. I am also the author of the novella, 'Susie', available on Amazon. Selections of my work have been presented at the Boulton Center for the Performing Arts, Bay Shore, NY, and at the ICON Science Fiction & Fantasy Convention. In addition to writing, my other interests include reading, music, current events, landscape photography, empowerment, and exploring the Human Condition. I'm a near-lifelong resident of Long Island.view less
