At long last, I have completed the task of overhauling this small web site. The job has been daunting, gruelling, tedious and intimidating, to use the few adjectives that come at once to mind. One problem was that the original pages were created by means of a Microsoft product, Front Page. I could think of several adjectives to describe that program, but one that rises to the surface is "detestable." I have reconstructed the site using Open Source software, namely Kompozer. Not that you care. You don't know how I have suffered...

Be that as it may, I think I have everything working now. Please report any broken links to the Webmaster, namely me. To find out why I go to all this trouble, please read on. 

I am told that in today's world I can not function without a Blog. Every Blog must contain a mug shot of the author. Here, then, is a picture of me:

Such as it is. If you want to hear what I sound like, this is me on the radio:

      RADIO INTERVIEW: On June 9, 2008 I did a 30 minute interview for KPFZ-FM, Mr RJ Martin presiding. The subject was writing, including my soon-to-be released novel "Gold," which would become available on June 23rd. For the edification and enlightenment of those interested, here is an MP3 of that show, Beat Cafe.

Okay.  For the benefit of anyone still around, here is a newer radio show, which I helped out on, on September 3, 2009. Mary and Raul pilot the show, I was only there for comic relief. The subject was supposed to be "the role of Place in writing," but of course I got off track as much as possible.  ; )  The show is called: Word  Weavers.

The above will take a little time to load, so please be patient.

   Now, this web site has three parts. First, with latest news, is Blog:    This is where you can see my books. I am a writer of books, a teller of tall tales. 

Next is the place where I keep several articles dealing with archeology. Some of these have been previously published, but I want to keep them available on the web. Rocks

Also on this site are several articles which I hope you may find interesting. Some of them are the sort of stuff no editor in his right mind would want to publish: Some Thoughts.
