The Remains of the Corps - BACKGROUND

By the time I was eight years old I had hunted bear with bow and arrow, ridden across the open plains upon magnificent horses, and hacked my way through lion infested jungles. By the time I was ten years old, distant lands were no longer foreign and the world had become my playground.  All this and more I accomplished solely through reading without ever leaving my home. As a kid, books were my escape from a quarreling family and chaotic life. It wasn’t until later that I realized how my early love of reading had paved the way for my achievements in adulthood.

My son will soon be off to Afghanistan.  While he is gone, I plan to stay busy with a project for Military Writers Society of America.  I am researching a nonfiction book that I'll let you know more about before long. Stop by and keep in touch!
