Travel and writing are my addictions. As this is the only planet I'm likely to live on, I feel compelled to look around. Quite interesting really. Have visited 101 countries and want to see more.

Following three travel books, the world of fiction came calling and so did independent publishing. My first two travel books and first novel came to print through regular publishing houses. KDP now gives me control.

Baby Maker Inc. encompasses comedy of the absurd and features an average guy who discovers his live seed can be sold. Thousands of lonely women, rejected by males because of looks, want to have babies, but fear the cold impersonal sperm banks.

Homeward I Lurched combines humor, horror, humanity and heartache. Not suitable for minors as it contains zombies, graphic violence, coarse language and brief scenes of nakedness. No animals were hurt in the writing.

Ring Around a Grave, on the other hand, moves quickly with a plot driven edge-of-the-seat narrative. It's easy to identify with the two main characters: ordinary folk who must confront greed and risk death from an enemy they can never know.

Hitting With Two Sticks defies categorization. Is it sports, romance, literature, thriller, adventure? Or all of those? Read it: let me know at okedits at hotmail dot com.
