Last year, The November 3rd Club published his poem, "Iraqi Temples," about
current religious intolerance. A more recent poem, "Monks Brawl in Holy Sepulcher" 
in The New Verse News dealt withintra-Christian intolerance and violence. A short
story based on his time in the Middle East, "The Faces of Stone," appeared
The Danforth Review and was republished by Danse Macabre in Fall 2008. 

Daniel has written The Feeling of the Earth, a speculative novel of the American
Dream, completed a poetry collection, and is working now on a suspense thriller,
that is when his cat Fizzy doesn't step all over his key board creating weird nonces
%a$N#~). For animal lovers, you might want to check out Daniel's two cat poems:
"The Cat and the Tech Mouse" at Anthrozine. It is also available in an Anthrozine
anthology. Another cat poem will be published this March in Abandoned Towers
Print Magazine.

Daniel resides on the central coast of California with his mysterious wife and
youngest son. He is an avid swimmer and hiker. In the past he back-packed to the
top of Mount Whitney and down to the bottom of the Grand Canyon on many of its
South Rim trails; but now he hikes into his computer room each day in the fall of his
years:_). Well, it's not quite that bad; on his last couple of vacations, Daniel hiked
with his wife on Kaui, in Washington State, and about British Columbia.

Reference of the Site Logo:
I saw, also, that there was an ocean of darkness and death; but an infinite
ocean of light and love, which flowed over the ocean of darkness. In that also,
I saw the love of God, and I had great openings.
