I'm a recently retired Petroleum Geolgist. I began writing fiction after returning from the Gulf War, having had the dubious honor of being a member of an Army Unit that was hunted before, and all through the war, by a paramilitary unit (terrorist group) tasked to kill the Unit. At war's end I was a member of a humanitarian task force that jump-started Kuwait City immediately after the war. I've been published in Japan, the U.S. and Taiwan, and have had several stageplays produced. One of my stage plays, Voices From The Cafe, has been selected to be produced in Iran, and a screenplay I wrote based on one of my stage plays, Faces In The Raft, is being represented to the Chinese film industry by Anton Diether, a well known screenwriter. My latest stage play, An End To War An End To Peace, is based upon the possibility that Homer's The Odyssey is a poetic description of what life was like after Odysseus returned home from the Trojan War.
