This has been a long journey. I actually began writing in grade school. I wrote my stories longhand and the pages would be passed around among my classmates. I knew then that I was destined to be a writer.
Being a writer has always been my destination, but my path traveled various winding roads along the way.
I married my childhood sweetheart, the love of my life, and she has remained at my side for more than forty years. I would often start writing while working at various non-skilled and skilled jobs. Those manuscripts were never completed.
At the age of twenty-seven, I knew that I needed a radical change in my life and joined the Air Force. Even while standing guard-duty in boot-camp, I continued to write.
Once out of boot-camp, and after completion of technical school, I was given the opportunity to realize another of my dreams. I have always wanted to teach and, due to a shortage of instructors and my technical school test scores, I was offered an instructor position in the Cryptography School. It was there that I worked with some of the best friends that I have ever known.
I taught myself computer programming and gained minor fame among users of a certain 8-bit computer.
But despite the many paths I have traveled, I always circled back to writing. After many false starts and incomplete novels (and a few short stories that never found a market,) I decided that it was time to make a commitment to finally complete a novel. I promised myself that I would write a minimum of five hundred words per day.
I have five published novels, a self-published novella, and several self-published short stories. I also have three short stories that have been included in anthologies.
