As a retired native Houstonian, I have enjoyed researching and writing nine books. They include history: D.B. Chapin, Naughty Victorians and I Can’t Make This S**t Up, historical fiction: Bad Vs Evil, a biography of Joseph Wesley Newman, and four fiction books: The Martian’s Black Box, Psycho in Blue, Serial Retribution, and, most recently, Perceived Unfair Advantage. Besides writing, my interests include bowling and classical music, perhaps an unusual combination.
