Bio
Recently I published my first novel, The Burning Ones, a sword-and-sorcery-and-cyborg adventure balancing the youthful angst of a coming-of-age story with the realities of a world plagued by war.

Wristy Business
I know a lot of trainers and fitness gurus come along and try to flip the script, tell you their super-secret unconventional/controversial training methods or regime that will make you 1,000,000 times more attractive and ripped in a matter of weeks; I'm not here to do that. I'm actually not gonna disagree with anybody outright or try to over haul anything. The plan here is to add to everyone else's work; I'm not the protein shake trying to replace the workout, I'm the supplements ready to give you a fully balanced diet with complete nutrition.

Climbing Old Rag
The town where I grew up is some fifty miles North-East of the Shenandoah river valley, Northern Virginia's resident portion of the Appalachian trail. My friends and I have spent many a summer day climbing in that range, finding swimming holes, dodging snakes and watching sunsets from 3,500 feet. I've caught a couple sunrise hikes too, which take your breath away. To see the fog of an early morning moving over a sleeping town far, far below you, and know the only people awake are the ones who came with you and anybody else with the right blend of stoic and crazy in them. Our Shenandoah mountains may be small in the grand scheme of things, but they've always been something to me.
