He made his first sale to a magazine at age 15, which means he has been writing for over 50 years, with the aforementioned occasional breaks for gainful employment.Several of the short stories that make up a portion of The Tears of Ishtar were nominated for various awards, including the Million Writers Award and top ten finishes in the 2007 and 2008 Preditors and Editors poll. His story Without Napier was a 2008 Pushcart Award nominee.ver menos
