My adventures. 11/28/2011 6:27:32 PM
A little bit about me. I grew up out in the country along with six sisters and two brothers. Stories were a big part of my life growing-up and--with that many siblings--there was never a shortage of imaginative-storytelling, book readings, or just simply being an avid listener. Every day was a wonderful learning experience with my family, and an experience that will stay in my head and heart forever I attended St. Mary's Elementary School in Herman, Pa. then went on to the local high school. I enlisted in the military in 1969, and was honourably discharged in 1971 from the United States Army's infantry division. I'm a Vietnam Veteran and was awarded two Bronze Stars. I've written children's books titled, Paddle Tail, Paddle Tail's First Winter Adventure, at www.authorsden.com/hanklegrandlll Three of my children's titles can be purchased in theAmazo Kindle bookstore. Their titles are, Toboggan Wax, Little Moe's Christmas, and Under The Wishing Well. My first young adult novel titled, Rampage,can be purchased also at the Amazon Kindle bookstore, and in paper back at Write Words Inc. www.writewordsinc.com . If you get a chance please check them out.
I’ve always had room in my head for daydreaming--actually a lot of room. I enjoy seeing my thoughts take form on paper, and I get a great deal of satisfaction inventing all the different characters. But, the best part of writing--to me—is watching in amazement as the characters begin to emerge as they are blended into the story. I presently work at AK Steel's Butler works--in the Environmental Department.
Interests: I like camping, inventing, drawing, and especially writing fiction stories for children and young adults. I also enjoy riding my Jet Ski, motorcycle, and working around my home--which keeps me more than occupied.
