Welcome.
I would like to thank you for stopping by my page and finding out more about me, my work, and my philosophy. I have written three books. The first is a non-fiction about my journey toward retirement. The rest are all fiction. The first Tampa Traffick is in the process of being edited for a second edition and will be re-released soon. It is about the scourge of human trafficking. It is the first in a series of three books. It follows the workings of a fictional entity known as the Smithson Evermore Group who assists law enforcement in recovering victims across national and international boundaries.
The Rooster and the Faded Rose is the second book in the series and follows the Smithson Evermore team as they attempt to recover two kidnap victims and intervene on a major trafficking network along the northern border. The third in the series is yet to be named but is well into the writing process.
As you navigate this page you will find more of my writings. These are bits and pieces I put together as I have traveled, dealt with life and all it brings, and captured people that truly penetrated my own defenses right through to my soul. You can even sign up for a monthly news brief and of course there are links to my social media.
One final note. I live a good life. I need nothing from my writing but to share. All proceeds from my Smithson Evermore books, after costs, will be donated to those agencies that assist the victims and survivors of human trafficking. Welcome to the site. I hope you find something interesting.
