Autorenporträt
We are all ultimately defined by the events in our lives, m.e. Elzey is no exception. Being raised in Gilbert, Arizona, during the fifties and sixties. It was an idyllic Southwest community of mid-twentieth century American. His love of reading and writing started by chance, in the seventh grade. He borrowed his older brother Ken's library book, J.D. Salinger's The Catcher in the Rye. He read it cover to cover. What stirred his interest was a conversation he overheard between his brother and mother as they discussed the use of the "F" word in the book. Keep in mind, this conversation took place in 1962. It wasn't a conversation that took place very often between anyone much less a parent and child. Good, bad, or indifferent, it was also the book that sparked his interest in reading and storytelling. He was already an established storyteller, just ask any of his childhood friends and classmates. Because of reading Catcher in the Rye, he read and eventually admired the skill of writers like Wallace Stegner, Norman Maclean, John Steinbeck and Dee Brown. While attending Arizona State University he developed a keen interest in the American politics and the counterculture of the late 1960s. At the request of several like-minded people, he began ghost writing political essays that highlighted the inequities of the times. As with everyone, the realities of life took center stage. In 1972 he went to work for Motorola Semiconductor Products in Phoenix, where he worked for the next thirty-three years. In the early 1990s, his job required that he travel extensively. The traveling rekindled his love of writing, especially fiction.His wife Jeannie 48 years live in Marana, Arizona, a northwestern suburb of Tucson. She's also his best friend, his squeeze, doubles as his editor, his most ardent fan and his most vocal critique.
