Born in upstate New York, moving to the north and south shores outside of Boston, this writer finally settled in central Florida. Instead of irritation over isolation from the COVID pandemic, the golf putter was put down and this book series came to life. Having been an editor for many years, though not book editing, the novels, allegories, short stories and nonfiction work did benefit from experience and all took shape. Normally, one genre is chosen to write in but since I am late to this and do not want to stop the flow, it has been a conscious decision to allow all the stories to come forward and see which might take hold.
