Right now, most of my books are photography how-to related. I also have the one about Atascadero State Hospital Mentioned in my bio.

Raised on the California Central Coast, I have always loved music, art and photography so it was a natural progression that I ended up a photographer and a writer. I enjoy a variety of activities that are great for photographers...
hiking, kayaking, or just driving up the coast. Carshows or just oddball shots of the city are also fun, (Like Bubblegum Alley)! My favorite by far is Nature and Scenics and I always bounce back to it.

I've also been a Psychiatric Technician at Atascadero State Hospital for the past 13 years. The title "The Sweet Smell of ASH in the Morning" is a funny book about the hospital. I wrote it primarily for the humor, but it also goes into the trials and tribulations of medical staff and forensic mental Patients. This particular book is not suited for kids.
