About Me
I am retired after 40 years of the UNIX/LINUX rat race. I have written since I was a child. Writing is the only thing I have ever wanted to do. I am married and have a beautiful daughter who lives at home because thoughtless doctors nearly ended her life and left her health in a shambles. I was born in Monterey but as a Navy brat, I lived many, many places. I lived in Iowa, Kansas and Missouri for 38 years before making it back to Monterey, the place of my heart.
