Bitter Memories: A Memoir of Heartache & Survival is the true story of my early childhood. At three years old, kidnapped by my father, heartache and sorrow were all I knew as people who should have taken care of me and loved me inflicted more and more pain and abuse daily. Living in terror, every day was a fight to survive. But, I didn't survive alone. I had "others" to help me, taking over my body and my mind, leaving me with huge gaps in time.

Drowning In Memories, written in two parts with a bonus short story at the end, continues my life story after leaving home, mistakes made along the way, finally meeting my big brother, numerous discoveries that had been secrets for years, and much more.

For my fiction fans, my story picks up in Trophy Murders, mixing truth with fiction to include a gang of serial killers for my uncle to deal with, giving my readers a bit of a break while telling more true parts of my story.

Cutter's Revenge ends the series the way I wanted it to be, getting revenge against some of the people who hurt me. My readers also gain a pound of revenge for themselves in an exciting read with more twists and turns than a snake on Prozac. Cutter's story is a must read for fiction and memoir fans, both. Enter Cutter's sadistic world...If you Dare!

The Rose is a fun read for all ages. Treat your inner child to a heartwarming short story about a young girl and her love for animals. Many of the animal names came from a sci-fi I wrote as a kid. Unfortunately my aunt found it hidden in my closet. Without reading it she called it garbage, a waste of time and paper, then made me watch as she tore it up and threw it in the trash. With only one chapter to go, that sci-fi has been dead and buried for fifty years, but my main characters from that story live again in The Rose.
