Ayooo! Greetings!

I am a published author and an artist. I currently have three novels, two short stories, and an art book that have been self-published through CreateSpace. They are currently available in print in the CreateSpace eStore and on Amazon, which also has a version for Kindle. The titles available now are:

"Daggers of Darkness", book #2, "The Heart of Élendor", is in progress.

I have lots of traditional artwork, most are related to my stories--character portraits and scenes. I do not draw or write porn of any kind (perhaps a tasteful nude or near nude, here and there), and most of my artwork is done in mechanical pencil, though I have been making an increasing number of drawings in color. I typically list in the Description field what I used to draw each piece when I post the picture, in case anyone might be interested. I prefer to buck the trend in the fandom and write clean stories. ^.^

A word about comments. I appreciate polite comments, suggestions, and constructive criticism. If someone just wants to post something to be rude, crude, and socially unacceptable, then I'll delete the offending comment. I know that no one can please everyone every time, and I know that my art and stories won't appeal to everyone. All that I ask is that if you do choose to leave a comment, please keep it civil, okay? :)

I have a Patreon account if anybody would like to donate a bit. 
I also accept donations and payments via PayPal (send me a personal message for details).

Just a little bit about myself:

I'm 58 years old, born and raised in the Midwest, USA. I served my country honorably in the U.S. Navy and have been to many places in the world. My hobbies include cooking, listening to music (mostly Celtic, '50's-'70's Rock-n-Roll, Classical, light jazz, and world music). I have fair skill at leather working, enjoy hiking and backpacking, canoeing, cycling, and walking. I'm single, unattached, and "straight", I live alone, and trying to get my tail to Alaska. Although my background is in Computer Engineering, Electrical Engineering, and Information Technology, I write stories that may have humans, G.E.L.F.s (Genetically Engineered Life Form), various four-footed or winged animals, and aliens. My stories tend to be love stories that may be some combination of action, adventure, drama, mysticism, sci-fi, alternate reality, folk tale, and heroic fantasy.
