To All who happen to be here by accident or design:
I appreciate anyone who takes the time to read
my work. I am a former journalist, have been
writing creatively for ten years; and only now
in late 1996, have I started this web project. I
have over a dozen novels completed, mostly romantic
suspense; numerous short stories/essays and poetry
to be filed in ftp storage when I get it ready to
upload.
I do not put copyright notices on my material...
poetry/stories/novels/essays/articles filed in
ftp storage (except for previously published work).
I prefer to think this work might find its way to
more people, whether the author is known or
not, if passed around freely. Therefore, you may
save anything you find worthy of being kept or share
it with others, or put a link to my URL/ftp files, or
suggest others visit my web site -- and I ask
no credit for myself. My work can be posted,
and is freely available for ezines, any on-line
publications which are FREE. However, I do ask
that no one, whether reader or publisher, ever
seek monetary profit from the work I am
freely distributing. And that the original text
not be altered.
The creative process is a joy for me;
and I want my work to be a joy of discovery
for others, without limitations regarding
the issue of *rights*. It is as available
to you, the reader, as it is to me, the writer.
One of the benefits of being *connected* to the
Net (while not entirely free if paying for access)
is that I can attempt this project. Eventually
my goal is to have free ftp storage space and
a free web site so that the work can be
circulated endlessly, almost maintenance free.
Sometimes it's as if I don't even know where the
words come from myself...so why should I *own* what
I've created? I have unorthodox viewpoints on this,
which I won't go into. Suffice to say, I have my
reasons.
ENJOY...LEARN...GROW...
That is all, and that is everything.

NOTE: While I'm always glad to share a reader's
opinion/feelings about my work, I'm not seeking
critiques on posted material: I've had a creative
writing course, been in critique circles; what
you're reading is the final version (which may
contain minor typos, or something I've overlooked
while preparing it to file and which I will
correct when possible. However, the content
is to remain 'as is'.)
