William's Story
I married Teri in 1982. The most significant things we've done since then are Alexa, eleven, and Mike, six.

During those years, I managed to put together a little less than six-thousand total hours flight time, save something more than sixty lives at hazard on the sea, interdict seven plus tons of cocaine and a hundred or so illegal immigrants. I got a medal once for flying a VFR only OH-58A helicopter in the clouds from near Nuremburg to Hohenfels, Germany, and not dying.

I was awarded an MA in English on Groundhog Day, 2010. I'm also marketing two novel length fantasy manuscripts - Split Affinity and Zook Country - while writing a third, mil-SF which I'm calling Mutiny on Hellespont. I sold Zook Country in Germany, under the title Zookland. It should be published in spring of 2010.
