Excerpt:
(And if there are parts of the city not so well-lit at night, dark passages in which the person who enters might come back out as someone else entirely, or perhaps not come back out at all, well, these are not the places a tourist needs to know about.)
Bio:
I attended Clarion West in 1997, have been active in SFWA and Broad Universe, and am one of the founding members of Book View Café, the online writers’ cooperative. I have two books out and my short fiction has appeared in a variety of anthologies, magazines, and online venues.On the non-writing front, I've studied martial arts, primarily Aikido, for 32 years. After living in Washington, DC, for many years, I'm now back in my native Austin.

Writing Description:
Lately I've begun to realize that the defining characteristic of most of my fiction is exploration of ideas. That doesn't mean I can't be funny, and I certainly haven't abandoned the adventure story (my first love). Nor does it mean I know what the ideas are before I start writing.
Writing Goals:
I am revising a novel at the request of a publisher. I will work on this novel every day during the Write-a-thon.
