Autorenporträt

As a young boy, all I had to do to enter a magical world was walk a few feet into the shadows and stillness of the woods behind my house. I spent many hours exploring their depths as well as the countryside just the other side of the creek that bordered our lot. I'd say that nature has been and still remains my best and favorite school.

I also loved attending the public schools in my hometown and a nearby university. I was inspired by the dedication of many of my teachers, and so I became one myself and taught secondary English and mathematics for thirty-three years. After retiring, I spent two years as a special education aide for an autistic student and another ten years as a private tutor. I now devote most of my time to thinking, reading, writing, loom knitting, and birding.

I first conceived of Not Even Light while considering the stories we tell ourselves about our origin, our history, our purpose, and the paths we're most likely to take into our shared future. Lately those paths have become increasingly uncertain, and I believe that Not Even Light is a reasonable depiction of where they are leading us. Nevertheless, like Travis and his friends, I have not yet given up hope.
