Retired U.S. Navy; retired Information Technologist; retired retail manager. Been a lot of places, done a lot of stuff, and now content to be retired, writing stories of fact and fiction, tending my friendly garden, and petting my puppies. I enjoy writing and editing, especially when I can help some young writer become inspired to create marvelous works of prose, and return one day to read it! If I happen to review your work one day, and seem harsh, please understand that I'm on YOUR side, always! And never be afraid to send me a request for an explanation. Regards, H -
