About Van & VF3

During my airline and management consulting careers, I flew over a million miles and spent mini lifetimes at airports all over the world. To protect myself from terminal and inflight boredom, I became a voracious reader. And so, when I retired, I decided to write a novel of my own.

I’d been writing newsletters, case studies, brochures and white papers for years, but this was my first foray into fiction. I had a wealth of raw material from the combination of situations and cultures I’d experienced, having lived and worked in over 30 countries around the world, and when combined with my extensive reading experience, it was easy to create plots and characters.

My first novel, Final Notice, was well received, and from there, Final Act and Final Chance were born. All three novels have, or I should say, “had” a futuristic slant, but technology has now overtaken the first two. When – not “if” – our atmosphere fails us, I have no doubt that Final Chance will also lose its futuristic feel.

VF3 represents my life's third chapter, and  I have several works in progress – both fiction and non –  as well as the occasional ghostwriting and consulting gigs to keep me busy, but never too busy to hang out with my best friend Yogi.
