I’ve written eight non-fiction books, two sci-fi novels, and produced ten photo essay books. The third book in the sci-fi trilogy is in work, as are the first two photo essays of Olympic National Park. I’ve been busy. Here’s the quick list and links for all of them. Hmm, just go to amazon and blurb, which I think works better.
