Overview

I first began writing four years ago, drawing on my life experiences. My brother Thaddeus, who had a great impact on my life, was difficult. Much later after his death, the family came to realize he probably suffered from Asperger's and was unable to relate to others, and me in particular. It was the inspiration for my first book Tadville, named after a game he controlled during childhood that I could never win. Once the door was opened by that effort I began to look at my life experiences outside the family that counterbalanced the insecurities of childhood, about the people who encouraged and believed in me. Suscipiat Dominus was written and published in 2013. The title is the name of the prayer I had been unable to memorize as an altar boy. The last two memoirs The Last Ride and POP are about the final days of my parent's lives. Poignant and emotionally charged these are tragic stories of two people who individually were talented but a disaster together even up to the end of their lives. THE SAM AND DON SHOW is a combination of those two stories that fittingly belong together even though they never seemed to belong together in life.
