Bewildering Stories biography
![]() |
I was born between the coal mines and steel mills of the Ruhr Valley in Germany. My writing career started on that glorious day when I figured out what a pen was. I hated school; it hated me back, and so I became an actor who wrote plays and funny things for the little screen.
I am not the religious type, but I studied theology and became a minister. These days, the Pacific Northwest is my home with my wife, dog, and a grown-up kid. My short stories were picked up by Bewildering Stories, Möbius Blvd Magazine, and Nat 1 Publishing. A novel is in the works. Stay tuned, and may the Universe always supply ample stories that entertain and inspire you.
