I have created routines that psychics have used to "prove" they are genuine -- which created some interesting issues.i have written prize-winning short stories and have had one book, The Indescribable Phenomenon, the biography of Anna Eva Fay, the woman Harry Houdini called "the greatest female mystifier", almost make it as a film for Walden Media, but in the end the book, along with another project I was involved in, didn't make the final production cut.A retired high executive, I have done business in 24 countries, and use that experience as background for my fiction. As I discussed at last year's Men of Mystery conference, in both my fiction and non-fiction the paranormal is fake. I enjoy reading of vampires (I have sat on the Bram Stoker Memorial Bench in Whitby, England, on a bluff overlooking Whitby Harbor with Whitby Abby off to the right). Dracula does run through your mind sitting there. I have also traveled in Romania, briefly into Transylvania; but even then, my paranormal remains fake.view less
