Novels
A rollicking tale of a road trip gone awry, in which the hero, transformed into an ass of the four-footed variety, ruminates about his life and discovers that the humans he meets are sometimes more asinine than real asses. A seriously comic novel in which things are not always what they appear to be.
Jeremy Chance, a mishap-prone 12-year-old learns about himself and his place in the world in this funny, thought-provoking coming-of-age tale tinged with magic. Beset by an ailing mother, irascible father and tyrannical teacher, he copes with some unusual occurrences and curious coincidences.

About Me
My professional work has been in English as a Second Language (ESL) as a teacher, administrator and curriculum designer, focused especially on promoting student-centered, experiential learning. I’ve also been involved in various writing projects. This site gives me a chance to share what I’ve done in both of these areas, which overlap in surprising ways.
