I started writing some years ago, when I was studying to become a certified Jewish Storyteller. At the time I began writing my own original stories to tell to live audiences, along with my own versions of traditional tales.

I had not known my Mother was Jewish when I was younger. I only found out in the last twenty years that she was from a hidden Jewish family who at pain of death, had to flee from persecution and the Inquisition in Spain and Portugal in the 1400`s, 1500`s and 1600`s.

Some of my ancestral Jewish family in Venice in the 1500`s claimed to be descended from King David, though there is no sure proof of this. In the early 1500`s and later they were court musicians and instrument builders in the Courts of Henry VIII and Queen Elizabeth, where the family continued to play music for the Royal Court and the Globe Theater in London. Eventually their descendants settled in the American colonies, with some as early as 1609 into the early 1700`s.

I draw upon this once hidden ancestry and my stringed instrument building experiences in my writing. I am a trained classical Italian violin builder, and harp builder, designing, building and carving custom one-of-a-kind harps for forty-seven years now. I also have designed and created multi-media Laser Beam harps and instruments that are installed in museums and other locations all over the world.

I live and write in Southwest Oregon, with my beautiful wife Laurie, and our sweet 4 year old girl dog Mitzi, who is a very intelligent lap sized mixed breed ( 5 different breeds!) girl we adopted from a local rescue group.

My first novel \"The Violin Maker\" was published in 2019. In my Book Two, \"The Fires of Time\", (to be released in August 2025), of this series, \"The Music of Timeâ€�, the story in this novel will be continued back in time in the 1500`s and beyond.

This novel was partially inspired by past life recalls I have had, as well as a near-death experience I experienced on Yom Kippur, before I found out I was Jewish by birth.

In addition to my Violin Maker series, I have a cozy mystery series set in Ashland OR that I will be publishing in the spring and summer of 2025. And more different book series after that.

Follow your Bliss and Live your Life in Joy.

A \"Music of Time\" Kabbalistic, Romantic Time Travel Thriller, Book One

It is 1986.

The world is sinking into the chill of Nuclear Winter.

And an ancient evil—the Spanish Inquisition, with all of its horrors—once again stalks the earth.

In the midst of this terror, a mysterious ancient violin captivates Joseph Davidson, drawing him 500 years back in time. Pursued by agents of the Inquisition, Joseph and his lover Rachel must solve the puzzle of his hidden heritage—and a secret prophecy to save their dying world.

With their love in jeopardy, and their lives in deadly peril, the violin calls out its siren song, leading them on a dangerous quest across the globe—and back through time.

In the spirit of Outlander by Diana Gabaldon, The Da Vinci Code by Dan Brown and the film The Red Violin by Don McKellar, blended with a timeless romance . . . The violin Maker by Glenn J. Hill unravels puzzles within a compelling romantic mystery that spans centuries.

Please note: This novel is a romantic mystical suspense/thriller with some scenes of sensuality.
