I'm an overgrown hippie living in beautiful Western New York. I work with tools by day and with words by night. My loves include Buffalo, NY and its surrounding regions; books; bib overalls; science fiction and fantasy; music of all kinds; walks in the woods and by the water. I love good food of all kinds: pizza, baked pasta, meat cooked well (that is to say, cooked correctly), fresh-baked bread, fruits that are in season. I love a warm apple pie with ice cream, and I love a cool cream pie in my face. I'm married to a wonderful woman who puts up with me, and we're raising a wonderful daughter who also puts up with me. Two of our children, alas, have gone before us into the Great Beyond, but who knows? As Spock says, "There are always possibilities." I love my family more than life itself!
