Welcome to my website. I hope that you’ll find it a helpful place to learn a little bit about me and my writing. If you are a book club interested in having me appear at your group either via phone or in person (within New York City) you can contact me or we’ll see what we can work out. If you’re a bookseller interested in having me come to your store for a reading, contact my publisher to set that up. I really appreciate and enjoy book clubs and booksellers and will do whatever I can to accommodate them.

On this site you’ll also find links to some things and places I love and admire, an easy way to purchase books and the story of my (professional) life. Hope you enjoy it—and thanks to each of you readers for your support!
