Six Winter Days
Historical Fiction
A teenage boy in the Revolutionary War learns about love, life, and loyalty when he changes from Tory to rebel at the two most important battles in American history.
In the last days of 1776, two teenage brothers walk westward from Princeton, NJ. They’re trying to get to Allentown because their mother wants them to get away from the war. On the journey, they’re attacked by swarming rebels, crazy farmers, a murderous British soldier, and an angry winter goose. Even a pretty girl takes a shot.
They can’t take the main road to Trenton because it’s clogged with rebels, so they take the back road, which leads them straight into the brutal battles of Trenton-Two and Princeton.

Miller’s Chapel
Multi-Cultural Mystery Novel
A strikingly beautiful dark-skinned librarian meets a white computer programmer whose obsession with graveyards puts her in danger from a racist killer.
Ben Bradshaw has a hobby. He takes a sheet of special paper, fastens it to a headstone, and rubs it with a wax object. The image of the headstone appears on his side of the paper. While doing Oscar F. Mayer, a security guard catches him. Ben plows into a headstone that bears the initials ‘MC’ in the lower left. They’re the same size, same place, and exactly the same as the initials he saw twenty years ago on the grave in an abandoned graveyard deep in the backwoods of New Jersey called “Miller’s Chapel.”
Somebody killed that poor girl in New Jersey and now he’s in Chicago.

Christmas Poems
On Christmas morning, my daughter gets some envelopes that give her clues to where the rest of the presents are hidden around the house. When she finds one gift, there’s another envelope. I work on them for hours starting around Thanksgiving.
Here are some of them. Feel free to plagiarize.
