Truth is Stranger
than Fiction
I was five years old when I realized my life’s calling . My parents bought me an instant-print camera for my birthday. I was amazed that I could freeze a moment in time and keep it forever. From that moment, I was destined to be a journalist. That career has taken me all over the world and allowed me to experience life from many different perspectives. I have been in the company of Presidents and Celebrities, Criminals and Heroes. Decades worth of memories have been jammed into my head, and I need to clean house. I have realized that I can use these true events to create fictional stories far stranger than anything I could make up on my own.
