The average length of a human genome is approximately six feet. Which, co-incidentally, is the average depth of a human grave.
When Portia Black wakes up, drugged and in a strange apartment, her first instinct is to run. After all she’s not the kind of girl authorities are sympathetic to. It doesn’t help that she’s a professional vigilante, settling scores for other girls like her who have been failed by the system, and it definitely doesn’t help that Nathan Hunter, her kidnapper, is one of the wealthiest bachelors in LA. But this is no date rape. Hunter is missing, the only trace of him is a severed finger in the freezer, and there’s a sutured knot in Portia’s jaw where her wisdom tooth used to be. The average length of a human genome is approximately six feet. Portia should know, she’s buried more than her share of bad guys with six feet of DNA. But when pieces of the girls she’s rescued begin to turn up with her cells on them, Portia realizes she’s been cell-jacked. Now the only hope to retrieve her stolen genetic identity is to rescue the man who attacked her before someone else finds him first. But as the body parts pile up, the questions she’s been afraid to ask start popping up. Is Hunter really the person everyone thinks he is? How are the girls connected to him? And, most importantly, are her girls really dead?

When a man values his faith greater than his own life, he will fight for godly justice to his last breath!
Ray Rod knows what it takes to live in a harsh world.
Born into a generations-old ranching bloodline, with a lineage of staunch and uncompromising men and women, survival is in Ray’s blood.
Known as “the Preacher,” Ray has followed in the footsteps of his forefathers his whole life – keeping to their traditions of hunting and honoring the Word of God.
Now an acclaimed host of a popular outdoor show and a prominent writer, Ray is no stranger to criticism from those who disagree with conservatives’ traditions – and is more than ready to defend himself and his core beliefs.
And when a gang of dangerous fugitives hiding in the mountains of Montana condemned four girls and a boy to unequivocal abuse and death, Ray must act and trust in his faith, as he has no choice but to enforce justice to protect the innocent.
But there is more than man’s greed and lies at large, as nature dangers, derange characters and hired agents unleashed their power to silence for good the hunters’ and guns’ advocate.
The bowhunter will have to rely on his abilities to try to survive the many threats allowed to test his faith.
Two questions remain…
Will it be enough to save self and those entrusted to him?
Or is there a limit to how much evil and danger one man can overcome alone?

“A raw and visceral journey through the alleys and penthouses of America, Big City Secrets is a striking tale of pushing through pain to discover ones potential. From an abusive childhood and early abandonment issues to complexes around sex, intimacy, money, and success, this book and its sympathetic protagonist shy away from nothing, turning a spotlight on human nature through the smudged and fickle lens of Los Angeles. With gritty, unpolished dialogue that seems like its pulled right from the street, and a matter-of-fact style of storytelling reminiscent of Bukowski or Bret Easton Ellis, this is a sleazy, but urgent sermon on the West Coast mount, an unapologetic journey into the dark heart of Americas illusion.” -SPR Free on Kindle.

THE DUZY HOUSE OF MOURNING is the compelling story of a young woman who survived an unthinkable accident the night she was born, an accident that claimed the life of her father, and forever altered her mother who sustained a traumatic brain injury.
The book opens 22 years later. January Duzinski has been raised by her Polish paternal grandparents and works as an embalmer in their mortuary. She’s a bit of an introvert, completely comfortable with the dead, completely brilliant (like her mother was) at the piano. And she has a very conflicted relationship with her non-verbal, disabled mother, Claire.
But January’s life is about to veer off its course with the arrival of one Oscar Thibodeau—attorney for her maternal grandmother, Rose Winston, a woman January has never met, a woman who is suddenly deceased. It seems there is a Steinway concert grand piano up for grabs…and anything else that might interest January.
Thus begins January’s reluctant journey into the incredible life of her mother. Through Claire’s diaries January is introduced to a strong, savvy, confident, enormously talented girl who disinherited herself from the wealth and trappings of a life she did not want. January is also made privy to a firsthand account of her parents’ love story, and the price Claire paid to be with her Polish undertaker. For the first time, January meets the father she has only known through her Duzinski grandparents. $0.99 on Kindle.

All my life, I was taught to follow the leader, as they coerced my thoughts, scrubbed my mind, confined my thinking, grabbed my attention and molded my every idea, like locking a bird into a cage.
Poetry came to the rescue as it released those birds from the cage; every bird flew into the sky, chose its own paths, encountered its own winds, witnessed its own colors…
As a child at night lying in bed, I saw the stars twinkling back at me, scintillating, sparking something in my young mind. They explained this magic as just physics: stars burst, light traveled, years, decades, even centuries later it reaches you and me.
It seems like I had never felt any magic until one day, when I recalled a line from a dead poet. I sensed his words lit up the night sky for me. It came and left, nothing to do with how far they had to travel. As imagination soars with those birds into the clouds, from that moment on, I started to compile the flashing glimmers, one by one, one cluster at a time.
Through so many years I counted, there were 105 poets of the past I have compiled in “A Few Words About Stars,” in the last two chapters of this book.
I know, there are many more birds and stars.
But, I chose to stop counting and am sorry to have missed those I did not include in this tally. I pray and believe there will always be more eyes to view the stars above with wonder, and more poets to light up the night sky in the foreseeable and unforeseeable future.
