When high school teacher Myles Bradford plays the Powerball lottery on April Fool’s Day and hits the jackpot, he decides to do something downright crazy: run for president of the United States!

New Book Deal!

I just inked a book deal with Ambassador International for my latest novel, Fool's Luck, a fictional memoir in which one man's attempt at power and fame could cost him everything he holds dear. More details to come.

Jim Mitchell is on the Run!

Picture

For fans of Chasing Deception and Undue Pressure, here's a preview of Running, the final book in the Jim Mitchell trilogy -

An assassin’s bullet sends Jim Mitchell running. When he’ll stop is anybody’s guess.

Jim’s boss, a local lawmaker, is gunned down and he is appointed to fill her seat. Unfortunately, that's just the beginning of his problems. Jim and his wife have a baby on the way, but that doesn’t stop the people trying to keep him from a job he never really wanted in the first place. Then Jim gets involved in a plan to thwart a major terror attack that could either make him a hero or get him killed.

Political intrigue and high drama accent this tale of what it costs to find one’s purpose, and what the rewards can be when you do.

Upcoming Events

I am working a screenplay adaptation of Undue Pressure AND my latest novel, Fool's Luck, so I don't have any public events on the calendar at this time. When I do, you'll be the first to know.

The Writer's Journey

Picture
Growing up an only child, I learned early on how to entertain and engage an audience with a story or two.

How did I go from childhood storyteller to author and budding screenwriter? You can check out the rest of my backstory here.
