Remembering My George W. - Tapa blanda

Acerca del autor

I retired as a Project Superintendent from commercial construction in 2001 and decided to fulfill a life’s ambition-- to write detective-fiction novels. I’d had the writing urge for most of my adult life. As a youngster, I marveled at what it must take to write books. In high school, one of my literature teachers once suggested that I should pursue a career in journalism. Ever the skeptic, I finally heeded his challenge in part decades later and spent years writing hundreds of published Political Blogs and Letters to the Editor. My initial attempt at writing crime-fiction came in late 1990, while snowed in at home for several days by a major Colorado winter storm that prevented me from going to work. Titled A Really Bad Day for Henry, it was my first, semi-serious attempts at writing crime-fiction. Afterward, I explained to friends that I wanted to write a weird short story and I based the slovenly main character on a composite of several less than intellectual acquaintances I had known personally. In 1997, at the suggestion of an Internet chat-friend from Utah, I began writing A Scent of Suspicion. Self-published in 1999, it became the first in the Detective Len Morgan Series later followed by several popular sequels: His Father’s Sons, A Passion for Revenge, CHAOS ...and Cops! and Insania Interruptus. In Pursuit of Phantoms is in the “pipeline.” In 2013, I took a short break from fiction writing and put together a compilation of my earlier political Blogs and Editorial Letters and published an opinionated nonfiction book: Prodigious Political Ponderings & Prognostications ...a sobering glance back; slouching into the early Obama years. All of these writings are available in paperback at the Createspace eStore.com/ and as Kindle eBooks at Amazon.com.
