Author Biography

I was born and raised in Buffalo, New York. Reading was my escape from the legendary Buffalo winters and probably contributed to my becoming a writer. My first novel, REALITIES, was published in hardcover and paperback in the US and the UK, and was a selection of the Swedish Book-of-the-Month Club. The idea for a novel can come from anywhere. THE LAST SEASON, THE STORY OF A MARRIAGE, started with an image of three middle-aged adults sitting at a dinner table, a married couple and an unmarried man. When the husband asked the man what his intentions were, the fellow replied, "I intend to marry your wife." The image was a gift, and I had to run with it.
