His words are hidden by the clouds...

Welcome to The County Quirk, a website devoted to my life’s work as a largely failed but endlessly devoted writer. Here you will find short stories, poetry, nonfiction, updates on my debut novel, information about my lectures, and more. The County Quirk refers to my complicated relationship with the local community. I have never fit in, yet I somehow feel at home. It’s hard to explain. Please take your time, browse around, read a little, and maybe post a comment. My mission is simple: I want to contribute something meaningful to the world with my words.

BIG NEWS! My debut novel will be published this summer. You can pre order it now at http://www.mainstreetrag.com/aasp/
