Autorenporträt
Growing up in a rural area on the Florida coast, David became profoundly aware of both nature's beauty, and life's material struggles. Drawing from personal experiences and a keen sense of observation, he crafts narratives that explore the complexities of human relationships and the pursuit of spiritual and personal understanding.His debut novel, The Child on the Playground, tells the story of Daniel, who grapples with amnesia after a near-fatal car accident. While journeying from North to South Florida, a ghostly child and a radio with a mind of its own lead him to an ominous small town and through the labyrinth of his unresolved relationship issues, spiritual dilemmas, and personal demons. Through Daniel's eyes, readers explore themes of missed opportunities, emotional sabotage, and deeper meanings behind relationship struggles.David's creative bent and yearning to answer questions of meaning and existence have led to studies ranging from music to engineering along with philosophy, psychology, spirituality and theology. He weaves these diverse elements throughout his writing.
