Excerpt

The smell of old gunpowder stung my nose as I inhaled. Gunpowder and mold. I opened my mouth for the end of the barrel, then set the pistol down on the bedspread. I wasn't quite ready yet. Besides, the gun had been in a U-Store-It in the south Florida heat and humidity for years. There were spots of rust on the barrel. It might not even fire. When I got to the point of eating the revolver, I didn't want to be disappointed.

Bio

I used to teach college history, but I've always been a writer (my mother has my first story, written at age seven). I write engineering documents during the day and fantasy at night. I live in the Seattle area with my wife and two boys, along with three cats and a beagle.
