Hey. Thanks for coming back here and exploring the back rooms.

Here’s a bit about me. I was born/raised in the Philly suburbs. I was wildly unspectacular as a kid. Then I spent nearly 15 years living in a van/cheap motel rooms as a guitarist/songwriter in a rock-n-roll band called Marah. Across the years I ended up experiencing marriage, parenthood, divorce, all that kind of thing….and I’ve been writing on and off through most of it.

Nowadays, I live in central Pennsylvania with my wife, Arle, and my 3 kids and 2 step kids. And we have a dog, Angus Young. He’s nuts.

I’m into American Civil War history (especially the Battle of Gettysburg), books, fishing, baseball, music, and driving around in my car talking to myself.

Thunder Pie is my blog/ my book/ my memoir/ my jam.

I write because writing helps me feel alive.

I hope you dig it.
