He Fell Through Clouds
A Novel
“A masterpiece of vivid characterization and unrelenting suspense.” — Alan Graham, Words & Pictures Press
He knew by the cry of locked wheels on tarmac, by the sting of rubber smoke in his nostrils, by the core of silence in which he found himself despite the noise—and perhaps mostly by this stillness—that he was not going to make it.

The Faces of Harriet Brown
A Novel
Born in 1928, Nachiketa Krishnamurti is raised in India by his paternal grandmother who teaches him to speak to snakes. His father, Jiddu, is a well-known mystic who is rarely home. His mother is never discussed.
At the age of 23, Jiddu reveals to Nachiketa that his mother is the reclusive Swedish film star, “Harriet Brown.”
Nachiketa and Harriet do eventually meet and together embark on a decades-long spiritual journey of sporadic meetings, prolonged silences, and extraordinary shared experiences complete with ancient snakes, trolls, and a mysterious white horse.
Recalling Yann Martel’s Life of Pi, Harriet Brown is rich in literary detail. Astute readers will recognize references to Mark Helprin’s A Winter’s Tale, and film buffs will easily identify Greta Garbo as the actress on whom Harriet is based (and who used the alias “Harriet Brown” frequently throughout her life.)

Only The Albatross Remembers
A Story
A sailboat with a crew of three goes down in a fierce storm somewhere between South Georgia and Gough Islands in the Southern Seas. All three drown. Yet, one of them survives. For these are the rules: If you have been true to those you loved; if you have been true to your word; if you have not been vain; if you have followed you own heart; and if you have placed personal integrity over gain and comfort; then, when you die, just like gravity makes very sure that what you let go of will find the earth, you will now get to be an albatross.
