She has a thousand beautiful looks and they all come at different times. Sometimes she flashes the, "Daddy, what are you talking about?" Other times she gives me the, "Daddy, you're silly!" But, I love the "I love yous" that go on forever, "I love you a million times a million...I love you a million times a million times eternity...I love you eternity times eternity..." That can go on for quite some time while eating Japanese buffet or walking around the department store...it just keeps going and going and going and...I am the author of several novels and a few other published works. The first novel I was ever contracted to write was for John Gordon Burke and it was about New Urbanism. A New Return to Urbanism is a book about the new way architects and city planners are designing cities for the pedestrian. That book gave me my start in the world of publishing.My next work was a look at the notions of law, crime and criminal behavior. Having been a correctional officer in the State of Maryland Department of Corrections, I observed quite a few interesting incidences that made me take a few notes. A Danger to Society is the product of those notes and I do a great job wrapping the truth around a hilarious story that involves a man and a case of mistaken identity.After that novel was published, I went on to write a few screenplays. Between the Bullets is the story of an assassin who falls in love with his mark's daughter. I was asked by the producer to write the screenplay and the concept was developed totally by the producer. But, I had a great time collaborating on the work. After outlining the project, I was responsible for making it happen and Vu Nguyen, the producer couldn't be happier. "Michael, the script is awesome... I love it!" The screenplay is set to be out in 2010.Once that project was complete, I was asked to write another screenplay for a producer out of Maryland. I was given the concept and Wooji became a reality once the producer and I went back and forth about the treatment. Now, the screenplay has been written and the production is in progress.Throughout my writings, I have also published Thoughts and Reconsiderations which is a collection of my poetry. But for now, I am interested in publishing Ashlie Wrote, a novel about a California girl who grows up in rough times and finds her way out to become the millionaire business woman she is today. But the story is distracted by sex and the pursuit of pleasure, which is a sharp reflection of the very nature of Ashlie herself. It's a true story, but the names and places have been changed to protect the innocent.Living in Tampa, Florida, my life has been quite a journey. A few years in the Marine Corps. An English Teacher in Western Maryland. I now enjoy my laid back lifestyle half a mile from the beach and a few miles from my daughter. (Less)
