The Seventh Date

One Pen - Endless Possibilities. I cannot think of a better way to describe my writing. Born and raised in Southern Oklahoma by a high school English teacher and a newspaper columnist, there was little doubt that at some point I would turn to words for comfort. Surrounded on all sides of my family by spinners of yarns and tellers of tales, there was little hope that I myself would not become a storyteller. I am a retired high school science teacher, who now spends much of his time writing and traveling. In addition to this work, I have published three novels, The Road to Nowhere, The Neon Church Journal, and The Seventh Date, two book of short stories entitled Raised Redneck, Vol. 1 & Vol. 2, as well as, as a collection of poetry entitled, heart breaks and cannon fodder. I live in rural Love County, Oklahoma, where, when not writing, I enjoy spending time with his seven children and twenty-one grandchildren. My favorite quote is-what doesn't kill you makes you stronger and I ain't dead yet.
