Music
I like old country, but 70's and 80's are probably my favorite now that I've aged a little. My teen years, were filled with Twisted Sister, Iron Maiden, Motley Crue, Ozzy, Metallica, Megadeath, Poison, and King Diamond.I have also craved the soundtrack, Trick or Treat. Once I aged a bit more, I grew into lots of Enigma, and tons of Pink Floyd. Since being on Myspace, a big inspiration to me was meeting a fantastic musician, Dion. I listen to his work quite a bit. Very relaxing and I use it to help me write my stories. He does his own work and is definetely undiscovered talent. Check his page out here:

I've always liked The Brother's Grimm, Stephen King, Wes Craven, Shel Silverstein, and twisted dark little stories that are quick and a good read.
My book, 'THE LUNACY MACHINE,' Twisted Tales of Unfortunate Times, was designed for the reader who likes a quick, easy-to-read, series of stories. 59 stories in all, The Lunacy Machine will keep you reading and wondering for hours as my stories relate with one another through their twisted bodies and dark art.

About me:
I created the Lunacy Machine in 1998 with an open mind to write something different and change the way we read fiction. The Lunacy Machine is a collection of twisted tales of unfortunate times that are simply written in rhyme. I looked at what Dr. Seuss and Shel Silverstein did for children and went the next step to bring a similar structure to adults. I enjoyed TALES FROM THE DARKSIDE, TALES FROM THE CRYPT and AMAZING STORIES when I was young and thought about expressing those thoughts in a new way in 'THE LUNACY MACHINE Twisted Tales of Unfortunate Times'which was released in July of 2007.
In January, 2009, I requested that THE LUNACY MACHINE be placed Out Of Print so that I could continue the stories where they left off and do some add-ins for a newer version due out in late 2009.
I thank everyone who supported me with book one and in return, you should be happy to know that the original book is selling for much more than its original price of $18.95. (About 10 times more!) The numbered copies I had released are now selling for almost $250.00!
Watch for the release of the NEW LUNACY MACHINE Twisted Tales of Unfortunate Times and watch my bulletins for pre-orders for the new numbered copies as well.

For each of us there is that one person we will love – Forever.
Hunky Hollywood heartthrob, Daniel Hunter falls in love for the first time in his life. Rachel West has arrived to take over production when the man originally hired as director is felled by illness. Jaded by of the excesses of Hollywood, he is beguiled by the shy, gentle sweetness of his new director and is captivated at first glance. Emotionally damaged by years of cruelty, Rachel falls in love just as deeply with Daniel, but her life is ruled by fear. Love becomes a struggle between promises and faith, desperation and desire, and the overpowering need to be together.
