Autorenporträt
I am a retired senior scientist and current storyteller. My publications include six books and a number of papers in scientific journals. I was born in Clinton in Vermillion County, Indiana, and I grew up on a farm in Sullivan County. My mother's ancestors lived and died on the Indiana frontier. For many years, my father and I fished and trapped on the Wabash River for a major portion of our family income. As an adult, I traveled to and lived in many places around the world, but I am still a Hoosier at heart. The settings for my latest novel titled: The River Rat Murders (2019), includes the Wabash River Valley and small Indiana towns during Prohibition. My father (1910-1998) was an active participant in the moonshine business during the 1920s. My earlier novel titled: The Dark Cabin Murders (2018), includes small towns and the countryside near my family's Indiana farm. Wind Grass Hill is a real place that I often visited as a boy. The Devil's Dell was modeled on the deep "dells" in Turkey Run State Park. I have six more books in various stages of completion, and new Wind Grass Hill novels will soon appear on bookstore shelves.
