Now retired, sort of, I made a living for many years with aerospace contractors first as an Apollo Astronaut Rescue Specialist and later, after graduating from UCF (then FTU)in the second charter class in 1971 I continued with aerospace and defense contractors as a corporate proposal planner and writer and as an independent consultant. As you should imagine, a proposal writer explains and persuades as succinctly as possible. And even though much of what I wrote was actually fiction it was written as fact. So I have limited experience writing fiction but lots of story material gathered over the past 50 years or so. That's why I'm here.
