About Me
Brain surgery in 2019 took the life I knew and handed me back something different. Turned out that included becoming a writer. Former logistics coordinator who now wrangles sentences instead of shipping schedules, though the deadlines are less forgiving. Married to Ramona, veteran, fountain pen enthusiast. I'm learning this craft later than most, one page at a time, because my brain decided I needed a second act and writing was it.
Type of Writer
Still figuring it out?
Writing Style
Honest, understated prose. Physical details over declarations. I let the reader feel what happens.
Interests
Fountain pens, sketching, sci-fi. Learning to write after my brain rewired itself. Late-life craft student applying logistics thinking to plot structure. Philosophy, recovery narratives, and the ongoing mystery of what my brain is actually doing.
