Introduction	Y'r 'umble scrivener knows how to milk cows (altho' he long ago swore to own no livestock larger than dachshunds), build fences, clear brush, and cut firewood. After 18 months in Viet-Nam and Cambodia he worked his way through university as an ambulance driver, nurses' aide, and then LVN. BA in History, University of San Diego, 1976; MEd, Stephen F. Austin State University, 1984; MA in English, Stephen F. Austin State University, 2002. He also taught school, but that makes him a class (no pun) enemy just now. He has been rejected by some of the finest publishing houses in America.
Interests	Dachshunds, volunteer work at the local prison, elementary school reading program, poetry, Russian poetry and novels, travel, and, in season a little gardening.
Favorite Movies	Almost anything by John Ford, English rah-rah propaganda (In Which We Serve et al), post-war Italian cinema, spies, film noir, and B-westerns.
Favorite Music	German Opera, Russian Romantics, and, hey, The Seekers
Favorite Books	The Brothers Karamazov and almost anything by Lewis, Tolkien, Chesterton, Belloc, and the lads. The Oxford Book of English Verse is my vade mecum.
