Into…..you can help me.

Hello,

This is my first post here, and I’m excited to jump into this community. A little about me: I’m a professional photographer with over 40 years of experience in the industry. If you search my name, you’ll see I’ve spent most of my career working with photographers, teaching, and contributing to the field in various ways.

But aside from photography, there’s something I’ve always wanted to do: write a novel. For 35 years, I’ve had a story in my head—a spy thriller—but I never wrote it down. I kept telling myself I’d start “someday,” but life and work always got in the way.

Recently, I decided to stop waiting and actually write it. The premise is simple but (I hope) unique: the main character is a secret agent whose cover is being a professional photographer. The idea came from my own experience—photographers often find themselves in places others can’t access. With the right attitude, a camera, and a few well-timed words, we can bypass even the tightest security. I realized that would make an excellent cover for a spy, and the story grew from there.

If you’re interested, I’d love for you to check it out. It’s still in the early stages, but I’m eager for constructive feedback and advice. You can find it here: https://www.wattpad.com/story/387652278-double-exposure

Thank you for letting me share this. It’s been a long time coming, and I’m looking forward to learning from all of you.
