I’m a US military veteran and as such, have been called to deploy in service of my country. My 7-year-old little girl had just started first grade when I was deployed to Southeast Asia. About two weeks prior to leaving I took her to an arcade place where I found a stuffed pig inside one of those claw games. She had tried and tried to get it to no avail when she finally asked me to try. On the first try, I got the stuffed pig and felt like such a superhero. She decided to call the stuffed pig Snorful. Every night before bed we had a routine where I’d cuddle with her before she fell asleep and she’d ask me to tell her stories. Normally I just created random fantasy stories from whatever came to mind, but this time she asked me to tell a story about Snorful. This is where Sir Snorful, the Knight of Hamelot was invented. Every night after that she begged for a Sir Snorful story so I created more elaborate stories for her. When it came time to deploy, I created the Tales of Sir Snorful as a way to connect with my little girl while I was deployed. I’d type them up during my down time and send them off. My little girl had a magical fairy house in her room and occasionally her fairy ‘Julie’ would deliver printed out stories of my most recent Sir Snorful story. I got to video chat with her and saw the joy and wonder the stories brought to her life. I realized it helped her cope without her Daddy present, so I continued to write as often as I could. Once I wrote my first story I realized I had a passion to share my experiences with other families. Although it's been a few years she continues to love the stories I make, and now I can finally share these stories with the world! I have added Kindle Vella stories and am currently working on a new motivational book for Dads. Look for it soon and Enjoy!
