Bitter Memories: A Memoir of Heartache & Survival (non-fiction) is written for easy reading, as I tell the story of my life after being kidnapped by my father, then living a life on the run, hungry, abused and terrified ...so terrified that I split into multiple personalities … a truly unforgettable, unnerving story of extreme child abuse and my fight to survive…
NOTE: Bitter Memories is NOT a cozy, feel-good book. It is a true story of extreme child abuse and my struggle to survive. It contains adult language and graphic content, however, it was my life. There is no way to sugarcoat child abuse, and to write my story any other way would have turned truth into fiction. Something I was not willing to do.


Trophy Murders (creative non-fiction/crime fiction) will be rewritten soon! The story as it stands mixes truth with fiction, adding an action-packed crime story as I take you further on the journey of true events after going to live with Uncle Henry (the cop) and his heavy-handed wife, Olivia. A life I wouldn’t wish on any kid … Problems at school, continued nightmares from my past, and a narrow-minded, bigoted Olivia, brings me to a dangerous low in my life … After a gang moves into the house on the hill and a murdering spree begins, Police Chief Henry Frye (my uncle) is asking himself how many must die before he catches the ones responsible for turning our quiet, peaceful town into a place of terror … Still trying to hide his own secrets and lies, Uncle Henry is afraid if I find out the truth it will destroy me ...

Cutter's Revenge(psychological thriller/crime fiction) may also be rewritten. As of now, the story mixes about five percent truth with fiction, however, anyone who’s read th will know truth from fiction instantly. Using many of the same characters, I introduce new characters — many you’ll love, some you’ll love to hate. While another serial killer, maybe more ruthless than the gang of killers, stalks our little town, I continue my story after my adoption, leaning more toward the way my life could have been IF .… a great fictional story that turns tragedy into a fantastic and exciting read complete with happy ending!

The purpose of the rewrite will be to extract the truth from Trophy Murders and Cutter's Revenge, then combine these true parts with the non-fiction sequel I'm working on now.
Some will like this change -- other's will not. But, I feel it will be better for everyone who likes non-fiction with no hype mixed in.

Stay tuned for updates.
