about me

Hi, I’m RJ!

I’m an own voice author and retired graphic designer. An avid reader—preferably while sipping a vodka martini or bourbon on the rocks—I’ve had a long and varied career, including library page, car wash attendant, sign language interpreter, travel agent, and graphic designer in the marijuana industry. In addition, I worked in banking for twenty-five years. I love to travel and have been on 60+ cruises. When not on a cruise, my husband & I live in New England.

I never planned to be a writer, but a fateful day in January, 2021 changed it all. I woke with a story stuck in my head and started typing. The more I type, the more story ideas I get.

Now I spend my time writing gay romance and traveling on cruises!
