Curious Tales

I write autofiction in the literary fiction category.

The Landscape Architect series explores landscape and culture from the Strait of Gibraltar to the Bosphorus, from North Africa to the Middle East.

The protagonist is an American landscape architect who never wanted to leave home; but life had other plans for him-over 30 years an expatriate in the sands -the Sahara, the Empty Quarter, everywhere in between and around all the edges. He had his hands full and his future... read for yourself.Sometimes life takes us down roads to places we never wanted to be.

It all starts here. Culture and landscape make a stew for our protagonist, Christopher Janus.

Living in Tangier, 2000, Christopher Janus, CJ, during his six-month term abroad design study, explored northern Morocco. But his geographic explorations were not the entire story. Unlike CJ had ever imagined, that geography throbbed with a much larger pulse beat--that of the northwest Africa landscape.
