As I walked out to my car at 5 :00 a.m. just yesterday, I noticed a small creature, about two feet tall, that seemed to be somehow transparent and yet was shaped similar to a small haystack apparently hovering near the ground by my rear bumper. Seeing me and apparently startled by this chance meeting, in the blink of an eye it quickly dashed-off (it had no moving parts) into the early-morning darkness while meanwhile I just stood there shaking my head and quite stunned by what I realized had been my first (and thus far only) chance contact with an extraterrestrial!

I prepare a complete outline before I write a single word so that I know where the story will be going...beginning to end. Not to say that I don't ever make changes to it, but I go in with a gameplan. I couldn't imagine starting a book and moving forward blindly. That's a recipe for disaster!

I get obsessed during the editing process. I did eight proofs on "Life's an...Unplayable Lie" before being satisfied. My latest book, "The Heroes of La Palma" only took seven proofs.

Nothing is easy about writing a book, not the conceptualizing, not the writing and not the editing. Every phase is a challenge. Are you up to it? Seeing your book in print is a true joy that can't be beat!

I just published my latest book, my first piece of fiction title, "The Heroes of La Palma". This book came together so well and so easily that I felt that this is what I should have been doing my entire life! I guess it's not too late though because I've already begun work on book two of the series!

After I composed an outline. I realized the true depth of the material that I had available. While my book has many photos, it turned out to be over 500 pages of crazy stories!

My family urged me for years to write it.
