About Me:
I write dark fiction fueled by personal details and distorted through the lens of an imperfect memory. I write horror, some of it real and recorded fact by fact. My first novel, The Bella Vista Motel, is a story about a young, ambitious, New York hit man, sent out west to watch over his Mafia Boss's pet project – a motel just outside of Ozona, Texas. He learns how to manage the elements of a different sort of underworld as the motel's dark purpose is revealed. My novel has way more than six sentences in it.

Madge Makes Up Her Mind - 8

Posted on February 27, 2010 at 3:08pm 1 Comment

By the time Madge made it out to the flats, the late afternoon sun slanting sideways and brushing the rocky landscape with vivid gold, she nearly had herself convinced that Maria would be there, maybe hiding in the back at first, but then coming out into the cantina at her mother's urging to face Madge with apologies and regrets for having run off. The cantina was closed, and there was an overslept siesta quiet all around, but the youngest sister peeked out of the window when Madge knocked on… Continue

Madge Makes Up Her Mind - 7

Posted on February 17, 2010 at 1:57pm 1 Comment

Slappy scratched his unruly mop of dark curly hair, and said, "Humph," in response to Madge's insistence that the cleaning girl had "run off." He chewed on the inside of his cheek as he looked at her, glanced at the wall, and then walked over to the edge of the clearing to gaze out at the featureless wasteland surrounding the motel grounds. He pulled his pack of Luckys out of his shirt pocket, stuck one in his mouth and turned to look at her again as he struck a match with his thumbnail and lit… Continue

Madge Makes Up Her Mind - 6

Posted on February 16, 2010 at 6:40pm 2 Comments

The West side of the Bella Vista motel suffered the full force of the afternoon sun every day, but the last room, number 12, gained a small advantage from the shade of the trees in the grove, and the back wall never saw the sun. Madge felt the improbable coolness of the smooth plaster next to her ear, and on her palm as she steadied herself against the wall. The scent of the plaster came up softly, a clean smell to her nose, its mineral chalkiness, strangely, causing her mouth to water and… Continue

Madge Makes Up Her Mind - 5

Posted on February 14, 2010 at 10:36pm 3 Comments

Madge ran into the clearing behind the motel, the afternoon sun marking her body with crisscrossed shadows from the tree branches above. It was quiet and still, but for the birds flitting from branch to branch and the tiny, tear-shaped leaves that always floated through the air like soft rain. She could hear her own heart pounding as she peered out through the trees, down the long irregular path that led out deep into the grove where the light gave up to murky twilight and losing your way…

Madge Makes Up Her Mind - 4

Posted on February 14, 2010 at 1:23am 2 Comments

Madge turned to leave room number 12, working herself up into a huff, overriding her unease with irritation at the cleaning girl's disappearance and locking on to the idea that she had run off. Before she made it to the door she heard a sound coming from the other side of the wall, a sound like a cat meowing far away and it stopped her cold. Room number 12 was the last room in the row on the west side of the motel and on the other side of the wall, there was a clearing that led into a deep… Continue

Hey Pamila - *Thanks* ... I keep going with all being right with the world, and I'm waiting on all to be right with ning to give back the complete history of works and connectivity that the "virus" Rob said swiped away, like a bad thief who went on the lam at the Bella Vista Motel on the night of a maelstrom. Amazing where a humble promoter of publishing can work in a worthy'writer a good plug, huh? Guess it harbingers well. Et tu? Publisher lookin' at you for the BigScreen yet?
