Current Research

• I am currently at the end stage of a manuscript devoted to a family’s struggle with bipolar disorder. The manuscript is memoir, exposition, and exploration of one of the most insidious forms of mental illness. My manuscript is under contract to McGraw-Hill. They have designated my project a “lead book” for their spring list and hired a special designer to work with me on its presentation.
