To tell the truth my life is a cartoon, funny, extravagant, creative, exciting and many of those “Coyote falls off the cliff and lands with a puff of dust at the bottom.” I am the author of Secret Grotto, Lost Oasis, Crow Canyon, Wink-Eye Creek, Cavern of the Eggstone, and 2006 The Honey Bee Girl, all available at Amazon.com. A poetry slam winner and producer, a professional artist, a football, track and soccer coach in public schools, a retired mailman (that's another story) a public speaker at conferences and schools, and there is also a bunch of stuff I used to do, like, play every sport imaginable, competitive bodybuilder for about ten years, and in 1992 I was on the American Gladiators television show.

I have published many short stories and written over two hundred. My website Art-Escape has a small art gallery and I also have a DVD of my artwork containing over one hundred pieces in six categories. I have produced many book and CD covers along with murals, illustrations and logos.

I am from southern Texas and was born to catch cottonmouth water moccasin snakes and grab armadillos by the tail. I was Tarzan of Texas when I was a kid and I wore clothes only because they made me go to school.
