Biography

  I was born in eastern Tennessee, seven decades ago, where I attended public schools and played baseball. The mountains became history as the army beconed for two terms in peacetime Europe and the USA. Afterwards I studied chemistry, pharmacy, and dentistry, before marrying the love of my life 41 years ago. She gave me two kids, one of whom teaches in kindergarten while the other teaches in college. Along the way, I coached college soccer, edited and published a weekly newspaper for five years, practiced pharmacy for 39 years. For 20 years I did mission work out of the country. Now that I’ve retired from paying jobs, I do dentistry in third world countries and write fiction.

I have now written a book I think you’ll like. To read a blurb, or to read an 18 page excerpt click on this link
