Welcome to My Worlds!

When I was 69, my daughter asked me to write a book to help divorced fathers. My 87-paged Handbook for Weekend Dads was an Amazon worldwide best seller in category for four years. Turning 70 I finished my first novel, The Pompey Hollow Book Club – historical fiction about growing up in the shadows of WWII. A month after its release a Diane Simowski from Barnes & Noble world headquarters called me at home to ask if I was going to write more books as I was a storyteller and they wanted my books in their stores. Diane Simowski added that in her long career in publishing she had never called an author before. We spoke for an hour. That month Syracuse University named me ‘Writer of the Year’ and a director of a WWII museum in Germany wrote me a letter saying my historical fiction depicted life for kids growing up in the shadows of WWII better than any book she’d ever read. Now in its 2nd edition retitled:

The Mysteries of Pompey Hollow.

My new series, The Peck Finch mystery series are now gaining popularity.
