Overview

Terry has had several jobs through the years with writing being his latest. After he moved to Florida to be by family, he took up writing more seriously, and has five books published.

His latest books are cop thrillers with a Latina detective. We discuss writing characters of different backgrounds and why he chose the character he did.

We also talk about other items - like a cookbook and game - that he is working on based on his own books. Besides all of this, he wrote a kids book for his grandson.
