I retired in 2001 shortly after 9/11 and began my career of writing. What started as a memoir, ended up being the beginning to my first novel, "From Chaff to Wheat" The story of a gorgeous ,19 year old ,drug dealing hooker who turned into my lover and later had my daughter. I have lived in Waikiki for the past several years. My children , Eric, Lisa and Bryan all live in the Minneapolis area.view less
