I did a tour in the US Navy, where I climbed around airplanes fixing black boxes that helped pilots find their way home. I wrote my first novel at 18 but to this day, it's hidden under my bed, where (trust me) it will remain. Gems from it, however, launched several series in my galaxy-wide universe of stories. From childhood, I was the victim of an overactive imagination and inherited the Irish gift of gab from my mother. From my father, I got a healthy respect for mechanical things. Small wonder I write Science Fiction and Fantasy peopled with misbehaving robots, mythic heroes, role playing immortal gamers, and warriors who purr.
I'm a member of RomVets, a group of military and former military women who write romance. In 2014, I was awarded an honorary lifetime membership to the OutlantaCon Science Fiction Convention for support of the convention since its debut. I founded Marketing for Romance Writers (more about them below), and today it has over 11k members in its Facebook group. I led a writer's group in my community for many years. I'm now in one online. The Speculative Fiction Writers Association meets weekly on Zoom. Now that I'm retired, I stay busier than ever, and I've been married so long I'm tenured.
I am a graphic artist as a hobby. Most of the art and banners on this site and in my social media were created by me, including my logo (updated in 2024 by GermanCreative on Fiverr). Check out my Creative Team with whom I have commissioned special pieces. Jamin Allen (Volgraza) has huge amounts of talent and has created much of the art on this site. I am also privileged to work with a cosplayer who portrays my immortal king, Pietas. Take a moment to admire Nik Nitsvetov's amazing work. That beautiful / handsome blond you see all over my site? That's Nik as Pietas.
To bring attention to other sci fi, fantasy, space opera, and sci fi romance authors, I share their work with my readers, especially on Twitter. I offer my subscribers an exclusive roster of like-minded authors, with all their social media, website, and genre information. Sign up for that here.
Original art by Jamin Allen) L to R: The immortal Pietas rules as king of the Sempervians. He considers Six his finest friend - even though he's human and therefore mortal.
Wulf, Alitus and Jawk -- the Chosen who support the Sempervians -- follow.
Pietas calls Luc his right hand. Surrender Love and Forever Love, a sweeter MM scifi series features Luc and Izzorah.
Senth and Khyff are half-brothers. Senth is Luc's adopted son.
Everyone shown has a relationship to Luc, and even if they are not aware of it, to Pietas.
Former cover artist Laura Givens used art from my covers to create a collage of characters.
Left, Luc is giving Senth (right) an appraising look - he's missing a tie.
The Chosen (L to R - Jawk, Alitus, Wulf) look on.
Khyff (Senth's half-brother) is in the back, keeping an eye on the proceedings.
