Dead Ball

My sixth book and fifth novel; “Dead Ball: The Pickleball Murder” has arrived!

The game of Pickleball has recently become the newest phenomenon across all age groups. However, the game goes back to the mid 60s when it was first invented by a group of friends in the Seattle area. It grew in popularity as courts were built in the 80s/90s by retirement communities searching for a less taxing game than tennis for their residents to play. As more players were attracted to the game more conflicting personalities competed. These conflicting personalities create chaos. This story portrays the worst kind of chaos. Murder!

Magic Mirror is available

My fourth book is now available on Amazon. It is titled “Magic Mirror”

Single women in multiple cities around we had states are being murdered in eerily similar ways. Each was strangled and their home, dressed in workout clothes, and always in the presence of the latest phenomenon and home exercise, the workout mirror. Is there a serial killer at large?

Local police departments focus on the homicides in their own jurisdictions. Unaware of potentially related murders only a few hundred miles away.

A team of journalists led by recent Pulitzer Prize winner Chuck Weston, join forces and are able to look at the bigger picture. They suspect there is more than one killer at work.

A mysterious man uses the dark web to lead a group of sinister men on a well organized, but demented mission.

Greetings from Ohio

I should probably post more often than once every three months. Is moving from Michigan to Ohio a good excuse for my lack of productivity? I wouldn’t let me off the hook that easily if I were you. I will try to do better.

why am I in Ohio? Our son and daughter-in-law live down here. Specifically, in Columbus. They are going to bless us with our first grandchild in April and we wanted to be near the action. My son, Andy, is a pharmacist at the James Hospital which is part of the enormous Wexner medical complex of Ohio State University. Sarah and I were nervous to move down here primarily because of the excellent healthcare we received in the Kalamazoo area. Our worries were greatly mis- placed. In just the six weeks we have been here I have already seen many specialists and we have been impressed by each of them. Everyone is so nice. So other than their football team I would highly recommend Columbus. I hope to reach out again sooner than three months from now.

Hello World

What have I gotten myself into? I just thought it would be cool to have a website In order to have one place where everyone could locate my books. Then I started getting emails informing me that people have subscribed to my site. Subscribed for what? I post most of my witty thoughts on Facebook. Will I still have enough to say to post blogs as well? My guess would be no but what the hell, I’ll give it a shot.
