My fourth novel, Prairie Fire (the sequel to the popular Tumbleweed Fever) is out at your bookstores now. If you like alternative romance and women in the old west. you'll love this one! I have just completed the final edit for my upcoming novel, a romantic comedy, Rebecca's Cove. Rennaissance should have it in print for May, 2003.

Future Projects:
One of my next projects is a Sci-Fi adventure that I hope my fans will enjoy. I am still debating whether I'm going to pitch it to some folks as a television series, adapt it as a screenplay, or see if I have the time to dedicate to creating a weekly "web" series out of it. Time will tell. Plus, I have a children's series of stories under the title My Little World. I hope to continue more of that this year. I've enjoyed writing about Katie and Charlie. I have their lives scripted out into adulthood. Now, I just need time to write about them!

I also love to write Fan Fiction for the TV show, Xena: Warrior Princess (in syndication on the Oxygen cable station). I currently have two rather popular series of stories going...The Queen series and The Conqueror series.

What I Do:
I'm a freelance artist working in 2D graphics, Video, and the Web. As an Illustrator, I've recently been designing book covers for mass paperback fiction, textbook artwork, and some logo design. My work as a Web Designer & Web Graphics Specialist can be seen on sites across the Internet. I've currently been dabbling in a great deal of video & audio work using a sort of home recording studio I set up with my computer system.

You can follow the links at the top or bottom of this page to see more info about me and my work. Click on the Artist link and you can view various pieces of artwork I've created. You can peruse a number of book covers that I've completed for myself, along with covers for a number of other authors.

I work part-time as an Instructor for Tulsa Community College. I teach a variety of computer graphic, web-related, and writing courses, both credit and non-credit. If you click on the Instructor link on the left, you can get an idea of the courses I teach each semester. If you live in the Tulsa area, take a look at my schedule & sign up for some classes.

Take a look around the site and if you need more info about any of my work & would like to contact me for information regarding classes, my novels, or hiring me as a writer (can you hear that Rob Tapert...Sam Raimi???<grin>), email me at:
