Born in Ottawa, Canada's capitol, raised in Montréal, I now spend as much time as possible in Manilva, Spain and Las Vegas.

Welcome to my website.

Thrilled this particular morning, having woken up to a double payment from the tooth fairy.

Deliriously happy here, in Manilva, Spain-having just tumbled down a hill and ready to jump into a deserted Roman Bath said to have been built for Julius Caesar.

I write about the past, the present, and the future - fiction and non-fiction. I also chronicle the history of the Newell Family.
