All kinds. Westerns (I'm a Duke fan), sci-fi, fantasy, biographical, period pieces. Love the medievel stuff - Lord of the Rings trilogy was magnificent. Christmas movies are great. Most recent movie I've seen and liked; A Love Song for Bobby Long.

Blues, jazz, rock, folk, celtic, in no particular order. Some country, funk, raggae, zydeco, and classic.

Oh man. Where to start? The Invisable Man, To Kill a Mockingbird, Tolkien, anything by William Goldman or Dashiell Hammett, Richard Brautigan, Michael Chabon, Jack London, most of Steven King, some Anne Rice... this is pointless - there are just too many.

Who has time?

Born and raised in Cincinnati Ohio, I have lived here most of my adult life. I work as an event manager at the 20th Century Theater, a cool restored movie theater built in 1941 and put on the National Registry as a landmark about nine years ago. We have some incredible concerts there, along with a lot of private events.



I also work as a freelance writer and artist, and do some production work. My first novel was published last year (hence the "serious writer" publicity photo at left), a fantasy adventure about a witch and her private detective husband called Jasmine's Husband Sam. Since it begins in modern time, goes back to ancient Europe and comes back again, there is a good deal of interesting history in it. You can check it out here. The sequel is in the works. I also illustrated a nice childrens' book that just came out called Mr. Whappoptamus Goes to the Beach, the first in a series of three by Mr. Scott Brown.



My real accomplishment is just being a dad to my seven-year-old daughter Delaney. If I start going on about her I won't stop.



Okay, I think I'm done writing about myself now. Maybe more later?

Writing, reading, and art. Exercise of all kinds. Movies and music. Good food (mostly healthy, but I do stray), good wine, scotch, beer and cigars (I know my profile says I never smoke, but I think they mean cigarettes) And martinis. I really like martinis. I love the outdoors, but who doesn't?

Internet surveys and arrogant people. And liver. I really hate liver.
