    More About Me

    I am a husband, a father, and a grandpa called "Papa." I make up bedtime stories for my grandkids "on-the-fly" about everything from "Blondie Blocks" to takeoffs on STAR WARS. Like Inspector Morse, I am "a useful baritone," and I have sung in choirs for over six decades. According to Facebook, I was a warrior in a prior life. If you'd like to know more about me, read my full bio.

    Don't Miss Anything

    I write a blog with articles on writing, history, and my background, research, opinions and books. I also send out a periodic Newsletter with updates about my writing and my books. If you don't want to miss a thing, enter your email below.
