I am for the most part a country boy that now lives in the City, but whenever I can sneak into the privacy that nature offers, I'm there. I moved to Ottawa in 1986 to attend school and then moved to Toronto in 1988. I always loved to tell stories and write. In my current position I continue to tell those stories and still have some time to write them down for others to enjoy. My favorite place to write whether it be in the winter, fall, summer or spring is a little cabin I have up North which is surrounded by nothing except acres of woods, a lake and a river.view less
