I was born in Dallas in 1964. Books have always been a part of my life. First as a reader, then a collector, then a bookbinder and restorer. Buying and selling rare books was next. Writing came late, when I was almost 40, and along with this came editing and coaching. But all of it feels like nothing more than preparation for the real work: representing and amplifying literary voices. I can't quite say why it took so long to figure this out, but it feels like I'm finally home. I want to read your good work.
