Hey all-

Long time reader, first time poster.

I have a bit of an eccentric life that has led me in several directions.

I recently started a job that unfortunately closed off my time to write, but before that I was a storm chaser, photographer, ordained minister, and worked medicine for 13 years.

Here’s some chase logs and photos:  http://belzeebub.deviantart.com/ and http://members.cox.net/mightybri

I became interested in writing after a wonderful teacher suggested that I try it for a contest.  I didn’t place, but my teacher loved my writing.  My academic career took forever because I always forced a couple writing or lit courses to fuel my imagination while taking chemistry and biology classes.

Anyhow, I finished my first novel, a young adult adventure, back in 2002 and have not revisited it since.  My next novel was described as a detective novel meets Clive Barker, “Hell to Pay”.

“A man who thinks he lost his soul, meets a man who has.”

I’ve had several agents show interest and have been shopping it around.  I’m still waiting for that call though.  At least being a full time writer would allow me more chasing time in the spring while doing book tours.
