To tell the truth, there is not much to this story. I grew up in a small town and only found out I had some writing ability in my senior year of high school. I had had the urge to write when I was 17, but did not know if I was any good until I took that Grade 12 Creative Writing class. An above-average grade and some praise from the teacher gave me the confidence of being able to put together a decent story.I had other plans for my future at that time, however. A different career plan took me down what ended up being a dead-end street (figuratively speaking, of course). So, I am not one of those authors that studied the English language and all its intricacies. I just have stories to tell and can manage to put them on paper in a manner that entertains (so I have been told). But, getting back to my story, love then found me. Four children came out of that failed relationship. When the youngest were two, I quit my job and concentrated on getting that story that popped into my head when I was 17 onto paper. Thirteen months later, the first draft of Knightfall was finished. The hardest work then ensued: publishing the book.I tried the traditional route of getting an agent to find a publisher. I did manage to find an agency to take me on, but nothing came of that endeavor. So, in May of 2008, I decided to publish the book myself. All I wanted was to see my work in print, for my friends and family to have a physical copy of my work.A year later, an e-mail introduced me to Strategic Book Group. So Knightfall was republished with a new cover and a cheaper retail price. Some further editing was done for this edition, making the story even better. And what does the future hold? Hopefully many more stories to entertain the masses.
