Links to some writing and publishing pages, mine and others':
- Amazon.com, where you can order any of my books.

- Lady In The Rain, half a horror story I wrote -- and which Providence Journal readers, in a Halloween 1999 contest, finished.
- Stephen and the Magic Bell. We got such a great reaction from the Halloween contest that we decided to do something similar for Christmas 1999. My inspiration for this one was The Eyes of the Dragon, the great fantasy tale by Stephen King, one of my favorite authors.
- Another fictional character is private eye Nick Nolan, unconventional hero of The Baby Hope Theft, a mystery story set in Newport that I started and which readers finish in a contest stretching into the fall of 2000.
- And speaking of characters, you may enjoy reading about the true-life shuttered world of high-society Newport, one of America's oldest and most exclusive resorts, in the July 2000 Providence Journal serial narrative A Nearly Perfect Summer: Travels Through Old-Money Newport.
