Recently completing six novels - all of which are available at Amazon - I have delved deeply into the sphere of natural phenomena. Whether in the Amazon rain forest or the Adirondacks, the presence of magic and mysterious happenings helps to determine the true understanding of where we need to be. Light moments and laughter can be a fine catalyst to the chemistry that leads to final revelations and resolution of challenges, and I try to leaven each story with at least a modicum of joy. My most recent story prominently includes the devil as an observer of the Human Condition and gives us all insight that otherwise would be difficult to describe. The constant turmoil between good and evil and indifference can be more clearly defined with the devil himself front and center.
