About
I've always believed in stories. Good stories may stick with us for a lifetime, but great stories are transformative. They haunt us; changing us in some fundamental sense, altering consciousness and inner nature both. We don't just read them; we live them, and they live in us, compelling us to see the world in a different light. That's why writers will sometimes say they didn't really write the story, but that it wrote them. Well, some writer says that.
Of course, I'm pretty remote from such fanciful and romantic things (figuratively and literally), plugging away at it on my vintage 1930s Royal from under a mountain of snow in frozen Finland. But you could say I aspire to them, in any case. As the old saying goes: I try my best to do what's right, but it just turns out the same as always...

The Hidden Pull
Set as a true crime memoir, The Hidden Pull is full of rebellious adventure, humor, and youthful self-sabotage; an entertaining and sincere account of growing up and learning the painfully necessary lessons of acquiring any craft, as well as finding and following one’s true path.
