Biography:
I was raised in Virginia
along the once rural fringe of Washington
D.C., and earned a Bachelor of
Architecture in 1986 from Virginia Tech. After practicing for six years
I left the profession out of poverty and artistic frustration. While in
search for another creative outlet I began writing fiction. My stories
have appeared in numerous literary magazines, both in print and
on-line, and I've also published a travel essay and photos of my trip
to Cambodia.
I've traveled extensively in Europe,
and visited China,
Thailand,
Cambodia
and Mexico.
I was recently awarded a grant from the Mid Atlantic Arts Foundation,
which supported a residency at the Virginia Center for the Creative
Arts. I've completed my first novel, The
Hunger Artist, and a collection of short stories called Home and Abroad. I'm currently working on my
second novel, The Want of Molly.
