Born and raised in Texas. A new author, notice I didn't say "young author", who has been doodling and illustrating for over thirty years. Tend to pen short children's books and fill them with colorful images, mainly geared towards the pre-school age group. A proud father of two...teenagers...who think dad's new "hobby" is "cute". I like how Amazon shows a sample biography that links to an award winning established author...I don't have any awards for my books to list but I did place in a writing contest in third grade (i think it was third place). Hope you enjoy my books, and look forward to reading reviews and feedback.
