Bio
Often a step ahead, I got the jump on The Great Recession and hammered by disasters -- personal and financial -- in 2005-7. They gave me six years in a wheelchair and time to write a book, The Nefta Complexity/Nirvana Chronicles, a spy-psych thriller and sure bestseller if it ever finds a publisher. They also took my family and possessions; all but memories, from which I'm rebuilding a life (the 'bootstrap' routine). But they also gave me a gift I could never afford: poverty at middle-age, when I had sense to know how to make good use of it, and did. Hard work freed me from that wheelchair and I can now walk just fine with a cane, that I expect not to hinder my golf game, and adroit manipulation of which I've nearly perfected. (Literary critics and fascists beware!) At various times of my life I've worked with Samuel Beckett and Carroll O'Connor, to name but two of a long list of notables whose company it's been my good fortune to share.
