Growing Up and Inspiration

Growing up in a small Kentucky town, my life was filled with happiness. With a big family and loving parents, as a teenager I started writing poems to show my love to my new bride. Later, after the birth of our daughter, I was overwhelmed with emotions and found myself writing more and more. It was after the passing of my Dad that I decided to try and get a book together. I felt I owed it to him as much as myself.

Writing and Memories

With a church-going family and a mom that loved telling stories, it seemed only natural that I would want to write. I love remembering the past, people, and places that I’ve been. It’s always been so easy for me to write them down. Sand Mountain Memories was thirty years in the making.

Current Life and Motivation

I now live in Mt Sterling, Kentucky, six miles from my childhood home, and I often visit those wonderful hills that as a child I couldn’t get enough of. In November of 2012, I was diagnosed with Progressive MS, and I thought now would be the time to get published... Thank you.
