My all time Fav Writer and Fav Book:

Ayn Rand Atlas Shrugged -The triumph of ability over government intrusion and socialism

Horror:

Stephen King - Fav Book: The Stand

Dean Koontz not as gory as King, more supernatural

John Saul... a mix of the two above...

Thrillers

Tom Clancy - Fav Patriot Games and The Hunt for Red October- Jack Ryan novels. Excellent examples of longevity for multiple, related books through a character.

Clive Cussler - Another example of ongoing NUMA adventures, multigenerational - Adm. Sandecker, Dirk Pitt, and his children

Westerns

Louis L'Amour - A true, escapist Storyteller. Good reads, despite that they seem to begin to run together after the first twenty books

Motivation: Started writing in 1985 for myself in response to a reaction to certain published books, where I was convinced I could do much better. I was traveling about fifty percent, nationally and into Canada, with a lot of down time in airports and on airplanes and limos. I write across the board, whatever has caught my attention for a story: Suspense, Paranormal Romance, Horror, Adventure.... and often a blend of all of them. As, it appears, do most writers.

Status change -

A two year throat cancer survivor, my seminar days are seemingly over. I can talk, meet and greet, handle signing, and such, but the days of my filling an auditorium with my voice are apparently done. This, of course, has cut about fifty percent of our company's total revenues. And in this tight market, that is significant. I am still writing, so why not put a few on the market and make them available for sale?

Found out how to put them on Amazon, so I can handle that myself. Anything more complicated out there will require a typical agent or publisher relationship. I will remove any from Amazon that are so contracted.

I have two daughters with artistic streaks strong in the genes, and I am proud of them for their own determination and skills

Mardi Storm, a seasoned artist who has been to Russia and to Paris, can paint well, but sculpture some of the most amazing things. You can check out her latest endeavors by clicking her name, or learn more about her on her FaceBook.

Karina Cooper,  Congratulations to her as a debut author in 2010 and still going strong! She seems to have found the magic touch early, and is turning out great stories in the paranormal and romance arenas.
