I'm from a small sleepy city, Cornwall Ontario, on the great St Lawrence River. An hour from Montreal Quebec.

I'm a fan of Ernesto Hemingway, Dylan ballads and El Che.
"Messenger", by Tea Party is a more current song favorite.

I like economical Am. spelling over the British. E-mail messaging is leading a way to simple, clear writing.

Been reading a number of books on international intervention lately and tried merging some of these concerns into a regular short story.
