About the Author

I'm a wanderer. I grew up in a small town in New Hampshire, and moved to Los Angeles when I was nineteen. In 1993, I volunteered in Sri Lanka and Thailand for 18 months, and made several more trips over the years. Eventually, I joined a team that worked to end the Sri Lanka civil war, and helped bring about a cease-fire there.

In 2004, I settled in rural southern Utah, where I made artisan cheese for eight years. Last year, I became a father, and there weren't enough hours in the day for cheesemaking anymore.

I've loved writing since I was a child. I began my first novel at age thirty, and it's not finished yet. My first published novel, Ordinary World, came out in 2012 and received great reviews. Now that I'm otherwise unemployed, writing allows me to work while still having the flexibility to be a good father.
