I'm a born and raised Vermont who now lives in San Diego. My wife and I did everything possible to help our teens love books, inspiring me to write a YA ms set on this lake.

Writing Interests

Someone who loves the long arcs of a manuscript.

My focus is YA, alt-history, fantasy, and I'm at work on a sci-fi ms now.

I'm open though I likely wouldn't have anything special to offer writers of romance, erotica, biography, memoirs. This not an exclusive list of my incompetencies.

Contemporary adult authors: T.C. Boyle, Murakami, Harrison, Mitchell, Winton, Gibson, Stephenson, Safina, McPhee
YA: Stiefvater, K. White, Dennard, Adeyemi, A. Thomas, Woodson, Moldavsky, plus the usual suspects

This will make people who know me shakes their heads: Testing shows me to be amazingly balanced. When I took SATs, GREs, etc, my Math and Verbal scores are nearly identical. I'm left-handed, love big books, great wine, fun people, good jokes, bad jokes, dark jokes, even Dad jokes ('cause the answer's ap-parent.)
