Autorenporträt

Forced to retire after thirty years of medical practice Adam Dumphy with time to read fiction could find nothing that pleased. If his body was house bound his mind could still soar so he took to writing.

For years he was beaten down by writing teachers and groveled before his computer and the writing book but recently he rebelled.

He announced to the world that he liked novel with little violence. He liked writers who used long words, as they were smarter than he and worth reading. He liked the omniscient mode as it gave the writer more freedom. And he adopted T. Jefferson's

Dictum, "It is a poor word that can only be spelled in one way."

He pulled silver fish raddled manuscripts from moth eaten boxes and decided to publish them just as they were, just for the fun of it, fun for him and fun for you.
