Autorenporträt
Dennis Doud was born in the same hospital as John Wayne, and lived his entire childhood in Iowa before leaving for higher education. After graduating from LeTourneau College, (now a university), in Longview, Texas, he returned home to the Hawkeye State. He left Iowa again to chase down his almost-a-wife who had taken a job in the Northwoods of Wisconsin. It's a place called "God's Country" and it has been truly that to Dennis, his bride of 35 years, and their now-grown-up kids. Dennis has enjoyed reading and writing since elementary school and, to this day, still barely tolerates arithmetic. He has written numerous short stories and articles, and has now trying his hand at writing faith-based screenplays and 'tweener home-school adventure books. He sporadically scribbles an online blog called Uncle Denny's Garage. Follow him online at www.headwaterswordsmithing.com
