I will use this blogspot to showcase my writing and will include my published clips. I started writing in 1993 after a career in the military that included 13 years active duty with the Air Force a short time in the Naval Reserve and the rest of my time with the Florida National Guard as a part time soldier and later as a full time active duty soldier. I retired from the military in 1993. The highest rank I obtained was Warrant Officer.
