I write. A lot. Besides blog entries and articles, I also write books, song lyrics, poetry, and screenplays. My work is largely fiction that
includes equal doses of humor and drama. I write about music and musicians, probably because I'm a musician and was raised in a family of musicians, from
Vaudeville to opera, Dixieland jazz to rock and roll.
In our English past the Wallers are court musicians and poets, including the famous Sir Edmund Waller
("Go, Lovely Rose") while the other side of my family is made up of writers, including Mark Twain and Alexander Woollcott so, between the paternal, musical
genes and the maternal, literary genes, I guess you could say writing about music was the natural and obvious path for me to take.
I hope you'll check out my work and, when you do, you'll enjoy it. I love the act of writing, but without readers, there would be no reason for me to do it.
