Roulette Writing Contests I've Entered

A few years back the Vancouver Province newspaper held two Roulette Wringing contest and I wrote for them both.  Only a couple dozen people from the whole province hung in there for all the chapters.  I was one of them.  Daniel Kella started with the first chapter and we all had a go at it from there.

Here is my Chapter Two.  Hope you enjoy reading the rest of them even though they don't connect together.  Such are the difficulties of following somebody else's storyline.

 Author at recent book signing - Quesnel Airport Days. Check here for your photo with Ed.  

 For the past eight years we have attended the Jackson Hole Writers Conference and received personal attention from the authors we hang out with there.

Altar and Throne came about from suggestions given at the writers conference that I should develop character writing. My wife taught me how to turn words into emotion. I continue to write, my wife still edits my work, we golf together, and enjoy our two cute little grandaughters who live in Victoria.
