New beginnings

After decades as a photojournalist, I have certainly had my share of stories to tell. What I didn’t know is how many fictional stories were perking along in my brain, until I retired.

Since that retirement, those stories have demanded to be born. I’m writing every day, often 3,000 words or more, having finished my professional memoirs and three novels set in New Orleans. And now, I’ve begun a fourth book.

Let’s talk. About writing, about news coverage, about Louisiana, or Washington, DC.
