It's not such a big step from pictures to writing.
And that's how it started out for me. I've illustrated more Western book covers than I care to mention and been doing it for a long time. No hardship, I hasten to add, I love the genre and have since a kid, although originally I made my name painting the cover art for other people, now at least, I manage to create covers for my own books.
A long-term closet writer, only comparatively recently, with a family grown and the availability of self-publishing have I managed to be able to write and get my stories out there.
As I did when illustrating, research counts a lot and has inspired many of my Westerns and Thrillers to have a basis in historical fact or at least weave their tale around the seeds of factual content.
Having such a visual background, mostly it's a matter of describing the pictures I see in my head and translating them to the written page. I guess that's why one of my early four-star reviewers described the book like a 'Western movie, fast paced and full of action.'
I enjoy writing them; I hope folks enjoy reading the results.
1898 CUBA - As his best friend and fellow Rough Rider lies fatally wounded during the battle for Kettle Hill, Jake Rains takes a solemn oath to care for his widow.
Trouble is Kitty Cartright already has a protector, Chris Leeward owner of the L-Double-E ranch.
When Jake arrives in Oakum, it is not an auspicious start. Things are not the best out at the Cartright place but Jake and his new friend Sam are determined to put things to rights. Still it is not an easy task, not only are they faced with Leeward's cruel riders, but also a band of zealous Mountain Men lusting for vengeance and then to cap it all comes the test of the most modern of inventions.
The challenge calls for old-fashioned courage on the streets of Oakum where Jake Rains must fight to save both Kitty and his life.
