WELCOME

     Jaguar Mirror is my website (M. A. Mogus.)  I am the author of the alternate universe novel Jaguar’s Mirror, and a retired physics professor living in Southwest Pennsylvania.  I have done work in archaeology, history and twice served as Interim Director of West Overton Museums in Scottdale, PA.  I am a free-lance writer, researcher and artist (Topaz Butterfly Creations - jewelry and other art.)

     I have published both fiction and nonfiction in numerous local, regional and national magazines including, Focus Magazine, Aviation History, Westmoreland History and others.  My comedic dinner-mystery play, Marriage is Murder, has been a successful fundraiser for several nonprofit groups.  Some excerpts of my work appear on this site.  All material is copyrighted and may not be used in any form without permission of the author (me.)
