A bit about me.

I came to writing through the back door so to speak. My formal training is as a Survey Engineer, and I worked in that field for many years.

One day, while dragging a chain saw and survey gear through the woods, I realized this was not as much fun as it was when I was 20! So I switched careers to become a REALTOR(r) with Century 21.

I have kept a journal for over twenty years which led me to writing longer stories. Now I have had two children's books published by Dragon Dreams Inc., located in Moncton, New Brunswick, Canada. The first, "Owen and the Dinosaur", is a picture book while the second, "Emily Finds a Dragon" is a middle grade book. I was honoured to have "Emily.." nominated for the 2013 Hackmatack Children's Choice Award.

I continue to write, moving into the YA and Adult genres, but my wife and I love to travel and I've decided to do more travel writing as well. So please tag along as Gail and I explore various places while we take pictures and write about what we do. Much of it will involve the Atlantic Provinces of Canada - the east coast people - since there are some spectacular places to see here and the way of life is a little slower and the people a little gentler than you may find elsewhere.
