Hi. I was born at a young age, toothless and naked, craving a cigar. I started writing in Highschool. After a year I could quote most publisher's rejection letters by heart.. I wrote a weekly column for the county newspaper. As an adult I wrote several non-fiction books, was contributing editor for a trade magazine, Technical writing was my specialty for over twenty years.
I've conduction seminars and gave speeches worldwide. When I retired I wrote a series of novels that I have made no attempt to publish. I've taken that goal off my bucket list and moved it to my to do list. A couple of years ago I published the humorous novel, "A Woodpecker and his Cockatoo" under the pen name Aaron Fire.through Amazon's kindle publishing. It's a hoot. I use different pen names for different genres so the readers will associate that author with that genre' only. I have over a hundred painted paintings and sketches in an online art gallery that caters to interior decorators and collectors. no T-shirts, mugs, and hoodies; just wall art and sculptures. Those novelty items are sold on a different site.
I've been growing older for a long time, but still haven't grown up.
