What type of art do you create?

I write children's books, essays and articles.

Describe your work: I have written four children's picture books (I did not illustrate them), "Sam: The Tale of a Chesapeake Bay Rockfish" (Tidewater Publishers, 1997) has been in print for more than 13 years. My new books -- "The Fish Tank" (Schiffer Publishing 2011), "The Turtle Tank" (Schiffer Publishing 2011) and "The Rat Tank" (Schiffer Publishing 2011) --are all written in haiku and are very fun to read. I have written essays and articles about life on the Eastern Shore that have been published in the Washington Post and First Person essays for The Washingtonian magazine.
