Author’s Bio:
Born in 1968, I discovered fishing shortly
after walking, a boon considering I lived in South Florida. After a brief move
to Kentucky, my family trekked back to South Florida, and it was at this time
that I made the first of my Big Career Changes, breaking from my daily fishing
habit to play the saxophone in middle school. I took this leap of faith under
advisement from my Consigliore/ Grandfather, who assured me that this was the
way to impress girls.
In a rare occurrence, he was wrong. This
isn’t surprising considering he had been a Big Band leader in the 1930s, which,
I have since learned, was a certainty for impressing girls. Middle School
saxophone played by a cherubic pre-teen? Not so much.
I had the good fortune to attend high
school in idyllic Upstate New York, where I learned the meaning of winter-- and
how to seize the whole of summer.
After two or three failed attempts at
college, I bought a pub. That was fun, because I love beer. However, I
eventually met someone smarter than me (a common event), but in this case, she
married me and convinced me to go back to school - which I did, with great
enthusiasm. I earned a Master’s Degree in History and rediscovered my love for
writing. I had written for most of my life, but it was only fatherhood and a
herd of dogs/cats/etc. that gave me the time management skills necessary to
finish a novel, and actually see several more in my future.
I live near Nashville, Tennessee with the
aforementioned wife, son, and herd, and when I’m not writing, I teach history,
grow wildly enthusiastic tomato plants, and restore my 1967 Mustang.
