Retired investigator from the city of Los Angeles now living in Illinois with my soulmate. College grad, a lot of good that did. Experienced Viet Nam out of high school which gave me the freedom to enjoy life and still haunts me with memories. A Reagan Republican, which is rare for a minority. No, I am not an undocumented alien. I still suffer from cultural shock of transitioning from the big city to a rural environment. You know, stuck halfway between been there and nowhere. But writing keeps me sane, I think. I write under the name of Anderson Dana, a much proper nom de plum.
