About Myself

Literature has not always been a passion of mine.

As a child, my favorite thing to do was watch TV and play video games.  We had a brand new Super Nintendo, and my siblings and I played it all the time.  I had a friend up the street from me who had a Sega gaming system, and we played football and basketball games all the time on that.

It was not until I was a senior in high school, and was assigned to read A Christmas Carol, by Charles Dickens that I really started to love to read.

I love to read, and I love to discuss literature.  My favorite genre to read and write is fantasy.

I was born in the InterMountain West of the United States.  I consider my home town to be Mendon, Ut; however, I spent my childhood years in Hinesville, Ga, and multiple communities in Northern Utah.

I graduated from Mountain Crest High School in Hyrum, Utah, and graduated from Utah State University with a degree in Anthropology, emphasis in Archaeology, with minors in Russian and Geology.

I started writing in grade school, and after many years and multiple attempts, I finally published my first book The United.

I presently live in Southeast Idaho with my family, my wife, three sons, and two daughters.

And not I am at 9 published titles with 1 on the way at the end of July.  My goal is to have 20 published titles (short stories, anthologies, novels, novellas, I’m not picky) by the end of 2022, and I have nearly half-way there.  I am excited about that.

Is there anything you would like to know about me?

 

I am a HUGE fan of the Star Wars franchise, not so much in the games, but the films and I am reading through a lot of the books.  My favorite animal is the volkrog, and when I am not writing, I am either at work, sleeping, or eating. I try to add in some family time as well.
