He has been writing plays since the mid-sixties, when he studied scriptwriting under the great Rod Serling. He took time out to raise a family but resumed writing in the 1980s. His poetry has won several awards in Florida Poetry Competitions. His poetry has not been published because of his belief that poetry must be oral. It should not be bound to little black splotches on paper.

He was also a member of the Playwright's Round Table in Orlando, FL. He moved to this area in 2005.
