Having spent years trying (unsuccessfully) to write, wrestling with great plot lines, I realized the problem wasn't with the stories, but with my framework. Basically, I could suspend my disbelief long enough to write most novels, but not long enough to write one. So I decided to change how I approached writing. I decided to throw out the 'rule book' on how to write, striking out on my own and trying to create on own unique voice. While complex and a bit jumbled, my stories tend to explore themes a bit more involved than you'll find in most books. They also to run MUCH longer than most. They aren't for everyone, but for those looking for something different, these are certainly that; focusing on understated characters doing extraordinary things without the traditional overstated situations and events.
