Author Information

I am husband, father, and grandfather. I live in one of the prettiest cities in the United States, New Bern, NC. Most of my career I have been involved in the Information Technology field. I officially retired in June of 2012. I soon realized that sitting on my front porch watching birds and squirrels eat all the seed I put out. You can only swing for just so long. I had to find something a little more demanding. Therefore, I joined a creative writing class, and from this class my idea to write fictional Western novels was born. The class membership consists of published authors, poets, short-story writers, and is led by a wonderful teacher, Mrs. Maxine Carey Harker. I left the front porch and moved to my office where I started writing short stories, memoirs, poems, and novels. I still feed the birds and squirrels, but my swing is not used near as often. My desire is to continue writing until I can no longer see the characters or my fingers won't work a keyboard. I have found joy in writing for others to enjoy. Since I live near the east coast and I am an avid boater, I intend to start a new series soon that will involve the beautiful outer banks off our coastline. Everyone has a story to tell. It just takes determination and time to write it so others can enjoy. My goal is to write at least three novels a year. I hope you enjoy.
