I am an avid journal keeper. I like the old school ways of writing with pen and ink. In fact I still write my snail mails and journal entries with dip pen and india ink. I am an avid outdoorsman who has just returned to living in "civilization" after spending several years living in the Southern Oregon Siskyou Mtns. 100% off grid. I loved that lifestyle and am working to return to it. I am an avid student of History, my favorite being the Colonial period of the United States and the American Revolution. I have been published in a few magazines over the years, mostly outdoors and firearm related articles. Goal: Publish a fiction novel
