Biography
My first writing were games on an old KayPro luggable and the Commodore 64. I was a custom business programmer. I was the computer system administrator for a worldwide television network with 23 stations across the nation WTCT or TCT TV. I joined this 12-step group Grow and became a leader. I represented the southern tip of Illinois to the state and national teams. I contributed writings to their books. Fleda McCoy and I copy-edited and constructed most of all the Illinois books. After we lost state funding and the groups in S. Illinois closed down, I got online. I joined TheMighty.com. It was just a few weeks and they made me a mighty leader. I started writing stories. I got 20 of them published in a year and a half. They taught me how to write mental health for the masses and that really helped my book. I was posting stories on my Facebook page that weren’t suitable for the mighty like “cow shit and cars.” A retired magazine publisher, R.K. Jenkins told me I should write a book and he helped me get started A besides the mighty I've since been on Twitter and Facebook .
