Writer and amateur photog. I seek to inspire and inform with the words I write and share and the photos I take. I have written a book of short stories: Terra Cotta Beauty, and I am working on a lot more. Reading and writing fuel my energy. In reading, I explore this vast and diverse world, in writing, I employ my over-active imagination and address the 'what-if' questions that life often throws at us.

Luther
Vandross

April 20, 1951 – July 1, 2005

He is described on AOL music as R&B’s unforgettable balladeer and vocalist, while ITunes and MTV confirm that his smooth and versatile tenor was one of America’s consistent and compelling voices. I have nothing more to add to those except that I miss him and wish he was still here making music.
