Hey
Thanks for visiting my website. I'm a freelance writer. Feel free to give me some work.
The main photo at the top of the page is from the Sabine River, which is the subject of my first book. I'm the writer, and Jacob Croft Botter is the photographer.
Unless we do something to really screw things up, the book might be coming out as early as next year. Yes, we have a contract, and yes, we are full of ourselves.
