Thank you so much for picking up my novel and joining me on this literary journey! Born in the vibrant city of Chicago and raised in its suburbs, I developed a love for storytelling at an early age through comic books. Some of my favorites are Spider-Man, Daredevil and Batman.

My fascination with aviation led me to pursue flying lessons, and I became a private pilot with an instrument rating, enjoying the thrill of soaring through the skies.

In addition to my passion for flying, I also have a deep love for wildlife photography. Over the years, I've had the privilege of having my photos published in magazines, winning a few awards for my work, and even seeing my wildlife video clips featured in local commercials. Capturing the beauty of nature through the lens has been an incredibly rewarding experience.

My father played a significant role in shaping my interests, introducing me to the timeless classics such as British TV show The Avengers, with the awesome duo John Steed and Mrs. Emma Peel. Others were the John Wayne westerns and Humphrey Bogart noir films—movies that continue to captivate me to this day. There's something about the way Bogart could wear a hat that still resonates.

I spent 12 fulfilling years working in a small neighborhood job, followed by a 30-year career in Research and Development. I was able to retire early, so my beautiful wife, Debi, and I relocated to the warm embrace of North Carolina, eager to be close to family and escape the harsh Chicago winters. Though we've traded snow for sunshine, my loyalty to Chicago sports remains unwavering—I’m still a passionate fan of my hometown teams.

Reading has always been a constant source of inspiration for me. I make time to read every day and explore a wide range of genres, from suspense, thrillers, and horror to contemporary fiction, science fiction/fantasy, romance, poetry, mysteries, and yes even still comic books. There’s nothing quite like escaping reality and being transported to new worlds of wonder. My journey into writing was profoundly influenced by a book called "Robbie’s Wife" by Russel Hill, published by Hard Case Crime. The richly drawn characters, the small country town setting, and the old noir feel of the story inspired me to create my own world in my debut novel, "Devil Don’t Go."

Taking creative writing classes and joining writing groups allowed me to hone my craft, learning to embrace criticism and grow from it. The process of crafting the characters and story for my novel was an exhilarating and joyful experience—one that I am thrilled to share with you. I hope you find as much enjoyment in reading "Devil Don’t Go" as I did in writing it.
