Books I've Written

The Book The Description The Retailers
A hero unlike any other, the Grammarian uses the strength of supple syntax and the power of perfect punctuation to fight for justice on the mean streets of Lexicon City.

An exciting and fun combination of superhero science fiction and humorous wordplay, "Verbosity's Vengeance" is a novel that will thrill and delight everyone who loves superpowers as much as semicolons.

“Dying is easy. Comedy is hard.”
This collection of limericks, some funny and some serious, were written over the course of many months, each to meet a weekly challenge: three words, chosen (almost) at random by someone else, served as the prompt. Those three had to be the basis for a poem that would scan, flow and tell a story... all in five lines.
