Fiction Writing

Romantic Fiction
I'm working on a full length novel, the manuscript for which I have completed. I plan to polish the manuscript by the end of February and submit it to a publisher for consideration. See more details in my Romance Novel web site.

Science Fiction
I've put my science fiction stories into the lower priority queue. I plan to write several romance novels. If I am successful, I'll probably sell out completely and ditch writing science fiction. What can I say, I'm a scoundrel.

Current Day Job

I'm working in retail until I become a full time writer. I might move into management if it takes a while to get my writing career started. Hopefully, I won't have to resort to such drastic measures.
