I haven't a writers background nor do i favor reading a lot and only began writing late in life. I began writing in 2009 when my friend asked me to write his story and, though I was just a technical writer at the time, I decided to give it a go and soon realized that I actually liked it and haven't stopped yet. I ended up with twenty books in five years. I also had a full-time job with a defense contractor that competed with my writing time but I persevered to get the story completed.
