I'm 70 years old. I retired from the Marines in 1979. Since then I've owned a couple of convenience stores and a dry cleaning business.I've even done a stint as a shrimp boat skipper. I'm presently the Chairman of The Board and a mentor at the CreativeWritingInstitute.com
Type of Writer
I write short stories, freelance ad copy, and magazine articles.
Writing Style
I find that hard to nail down because of the many types of writing I do. I seem to be able to adapt and adjust styles.
Interests
Writing, reading all genres, golf, wood carving, and playing my banjo that I've owned for over 40 years. We own five rental homes so I'm pretty handy with the hammer and monkey wrench.
