His essays have appeared in many publications, including America in WWII, The Isherwood Century, Telling Tales Out Of School, Latin Lovers, Stories From The Other Side, Chicken Soup For the Volunteer's Soul, Liberating Minds, When A Lifemate Dies, A Loving Testimony, Mourning Our Mothers, and various newspapers and academic reference books.

Book your passage today for the thrill-ride of the season! All aboard The Orient Express, the 1930s luxury train, as it carts us through central and eastern Europe from Istanbul to Paris. But beware...it's all about to go off the rails! An American tycoon lies dead in his compartment, stabbed a dozen times, his door locked from the inside. A train full of suspects with an alibi for each one and a killer in their midst sounds like the perfect mystery for detective Hercule Poirot. This first-ever stage adaptation of Agatha Christie's masterpiece will leave audiences guessing whodunit.

Adapted for the Stage by Ken Ludwig, playwright of Lend Me a Tenor, Moon Over Buffalo, and many more.
