Website Designs
From January 1998 on, I've engaged in a number of website designs
employing hand-coded HTML and Javascript. Take a peek if you have any interest in that sort of thing.
Music
Over the years I've played rhythm and lead guitar on a number of jams which were recorded for our amusement, as well
as on Mike Dakota's witty send-up of President George Bush, "King George Is Back." The
tunes will play in Windows Media Player (or your default player).

Fiction
My novel I-State Lines was published in May 2006 by Permanent Press, NY. Just for kicks,
Read the first chapter (approximately seven pages),
or sample stories from the book.
As a bit of a lark, I'm also writing a serialized novel for young readers, Claire's Great Adventure, or Her Sixteenth Summer.
