I am a Literary Critic for Simon & Schuster, Oxford University Press and Twelve Books; a Guest Columnist for The Oklahoma Daily; a Guest Blogger for Better World Books; an artist; a poet; a pupil of Psychology and Religion; an advocate of peace, free inquiry, freedom of expression and freedom from religion. Among my friends I am known as “The Literary Shamus” – an appropriate sobriquet, as I am never without a book, or something profound to say about an author. I write with profundity on the topics of: religiosity, ideology, morality and life.
