My imagination tends to fly in a million directions and it takes a cage to keep it focused.

I love finding the best deals, plotting our approach, waiting in companionable lines, sharing our quests with other modern searchers all on their own missions. There is never too much rudeness, or too much complaining as someone makes…

Someone recently asked me if my stories were a political commentary on the current US mess. I laughed because I originally wrote them before the current mess developed.
