I read a lot.   Fiction and non-fiction.  I’m always experiencing the work of new authors, and I continue to eagerly await the next book from my favorite writers.This is the corner of the website where I have a chance to let you know what I’m working on and when it’ll be ready for you.  The Internet gives writers and readers unique ways to connect with each other.  And that’s what it’s all about -- two people connecting with a good story.

So what’s next?  Coming in December is a stand-alone novel called GRAVITY.  Paul Marcus is about to put flowers on the graves of his wife and daughter when he receives a strange phone call from a university professor in Jerusalem who says a package arrived containing lost notes from one of the most brilliant scientists who ever lived -- Sir Isaac Newton.  The professor invites Marcus to Jerusalem to attempt to decrypt the Newton papers.

Marcus, who is a former cryptographer, isn't interested.  The professor insists, and he sends Marcus a copy of the last page Newton ever wrote.  At the bottom of the page, Newton scrawls that the world's most frightening prophecy may be fully understood if an ancient code can be broken -- a code connected to a hidden artifact owned by some of history's most infamous leaders.  Newton writes that the person who will decipher the code is a man named Paul Marcus.

Marcus agrees to travel to Jerusalem.  He soon learns the real reason he's in Israel.  He loads the information onto a flash drive with the intent to reveal it on the Internet.  He becomes the most hunted man in history because he knows the future.

If you knew how past and present can influence future events, and you might change it -- would you?  Could you?   Paul Marcus knows how the lines from the past will intersect with the future.   But what he doesn't know is his own fate and how that path will cross with powerful people determined to control the events that touch everyone on earth.  Only one man ever learned the secrets that Marcus now knows...and it's a secret Isaac Newton took to his grave.
