ABOUT ME

~~
bio

Well, I've been very subtle so far, so I can imagine that you've missed this detail, so I'll repeat it: I'm a writer and I've got a few books. Trattoria, 24/7, Mutual Holdings, American Cool, House Money, Lady Luck, and Shuffle Up and Deal . All are now officially available for sale. I would love it if you would buy them.

Anyhow.

I'm very boring. I'm not gonna sit here and lie and try to jazz it all up and make myself sound interesting. So you're probably wondering why I even bothered with a "bio" page. I'm wondering too. I figured I'd put it here because I'm not a "closed off" person. Just boring. But maybe I'll become interesting at some point. And if I become interesting, then I probably won't have time for making new web pages and talking about how interesting I am because I'll be busy just being interesting and doing interesting things.

But even in all my busy-ness and interestingness, I would still have time to at least rip off a couple of paragraphs about how fascinating I am now and paste here, onto this handy already-in-place page.

It hasn't happened yet. But you'll be the second person to know (after myself) if it does. Please don't hold your breath.

So, in the meantime, here's the pertinent vital stats:
I'm single. In December, I turned 39. Again.

I love Las Vegas. I don't live there for a plethora of reasons, but I visit more often than I suppose I should.

Awards & Nominationss -- (that's right, shameless bragging ensues here)

My short story won the Spirit award at the 2005 Moondance Film Festival!
I'm very proud of that. You can read the story right here:

I do not currently have an agent. You oughta give me a jingle directly if you'd like to make a movie based on my books.
HBO, call me! 24/7 would make a brilliant mini-series!

I don't know how often I'll be able to update this, but I'm also going to try and keep a blog. It's here:

My Blog: Neon Fiction

I know you've been waiting for this, so here's what I look like.

And YES I know that's a stupid look I have on my face. I get that "deer in the headlights" look whenever I see a camera. Gimme a break. I'm not Catherine Zeta-Jones, I'm a writer.

Thanks for stopping by. I have to go work on becoming interesting.

Peace
