Researching 'GRAVES IN THE WILDERNESS' made me realize that we're only here for a short while so may as well leave something behind! And what better than a piece of your mind; your creative being ... a book ... your creation!
Background
Information
What motivates me to write? Well it sure ain't fame, fortune or the trappings! I guess I write because I have something to share. If I like it then there's a fair chance that others will get some enjoyment from it as well. That's certainly been the case to date. Perhaps I am unwell, but I even enjoy the research, long hours of writing, re-writing and re-writing again until I have a product that I feel is ready to lay down and let the editors go crazy over. Love historical fiction. There's something about injecting characters into history that intreagues me. I know that I can't change history but it's a hoot taking part in it after the event through my characters.
