In the book library, you will find stories for every age. All of my books are available on Amazon.com in a variety of formats. In the news section, you’ll be able to keep up with stories in development as well as get updates on other topics. You can also tune in and subscribe to my podcast, where I read my stories and share some behind-the-scenes to how the stories came into being.

My wife and kids are my first audience. We have enjoyed reading all kinds of stories together, and all of my stories have been read to my family before I send them to Amazon, so you can trust that you will not be embarrassed by scenes not suitable for the whole family.

Most stories are about a character experiencing a changed life. My faith in Jesus Christ and the transforming story into which He has included me drives my desire to tell these stories. Most stories are about a character experiencing a changed life.

Stories for everyone in the family.

Time-hopping action/adventure, witty mysteries, colorful fables. The book library has stories for parents and children alike at a variety of reading levels.
