A Thanks To You All
For a number of years..., more than I actually like to contemplate at this point in my middle age... I have fancied myself a writer. From the time at the tender age of eight or so when I penned my first couple of science fiction tales, to the time I finished writing and submitted my first actual thriller novel in approximately 2000. Poems uncounted. Silly tales and satire and comedic skits unnumbered. All owing to my blessed departed mother - Alice Faye Haney-McDonald, who taught me to read by the age of four. Books and writing have been a lifestyle despite that my degree is in Applied Mathematics. (Florida Institute of Technology - 1985). Then, something miraculous happened: In October 2021 I joined an online writing site called vocal.media.
