Welcome to my world of recovery and learning the craft of writing later than most. I'm a 20-year Air Force veteran who spent another 15 years in Walmart logistics before brain surgery in 2019 changed everything. Five years of recovery gave me a memoir and taught me I'm a writer. Turns out you can learn that at any age. Recently finished my first novel after about three years of serious practice. Fountain pen collector, compulsive doodler, freelance philosopher. I'm figuring this out as I go, one page at a time.
