My latest book is called Karma. I had been watching old episodes of Match Game and was inspired to write a character loosely based on Richard Dawson.

Not really. I usually write the ending first and work the story to that end.

I am working on a book similar to Believe Me: The Story of a Narcissist. It tells the story from the perspective of a political reporter watching the presidential campaign of one particular candidate.
