I retired from trial litigation in 2018. Over the previous three years I'd spent the little time I had writing First Second Coming, my debut novel and the first of a planned series.

On August 1st, 2020, First Second Coming was published. Three months later Literary Titan magazine bestowed a "Gold Award" to my novel, for writing excellence.

In April, First Second Coming was nominated as a candidate to win the 2021 RONE Award in fantasy. In the same month, the novel was also featured on the CBS Morning News.

And now my novel is being adapted into a movie. How about that?

I guess I should've started writing fiction sooner, but that's life. Writing through retirement is a true joy.
