A retired firefighter/EMT-paramedic/special rescue technician: From a young adolescent to a young adult, he pursued many different hobbies and adventures. He was frequently off to some adventure spelunking, technical rock climbing, and backpacking. Canoeing and kayaking the white water rapids of many different classes. He was one for an adventure over the usual social structures of those times. When he was not off on one of his pursuits of adventures, he was an avid reader of many of the authors from the science fiction genre. Isaac Asimov, Ray Bradbury, Arthur C. Clark, Philip K. Dick, Robert Heinlein, and Andre Norton, to name a few. As an adult, he renewed his interest in amateur astronomy and astrophotography, and he finally built a small roll-off roof observatory in the backyard. He also has pursued an interest in many sciences related to the study and theory of astronomy. As an adult, he traveled along many different trades and vocational paths. He achieved a career in the fire service. Working with a volunteer service first, then in a career department in a large metropolis in Indiana. The many realities of life encountered and dealt with in that career helped to shape his appreciation for the sanctity of life and its frailty as well. He tries to apply some of these lessons in his writing and fictional worlds. “Never go to bed mad at the ones you love! Life's cruel fate could strip them from you tomorrow! Try to leave a legacy behind you of life and good works. This is the only life you get on this Earth, so use it wisely! I've helped to bring life into this world and felt the humbling experience of seeing it leave abruptly!”
