Outdoors, art, music, long walkd, the beach, and good Southern cooking. Not to be rude, but I am interested in friends who share the same interests, not a bunch of porn or spam. Professionals and those who wish to network, are more than welcome. I am married and not searching or interested in seeing your webcam.
Music
Oldies, Do-Wop, some country and country rock.
Movies
Almost any western or mountain man! Love action/adventure.
Television
Not much of a T.V. viewer, but again, I enjoy good traditional westerns.
Books
Mine of course, LOL... but also books by new writers. I have found some new writers have a lot to offer a reader. I enjoy Matt Braun, Don Bendell, and others who tell a tall tale.
Heroes
John Wayne, my grandfather, Mark Twain, and Win Blevins
Published Author of: The Drum Series , Death on the Mountain, Missouri in Flames, I Rode with Jesse James and more. I am a retired United States military senior non-commissioned officer.

I am an award winning writer and cartoonist, as well as a published author of ten books. My work has been endorsed by Matt Braun, Don Bendell, Stephen Lodge, and many others.

You'll usually catch me on the computer, writing a new book. My hobbies include camping, hunting, fishing, hiking, cartooning, and reading. I have an Associates Degree in Search and Rescue, Survival Operations, a Bachelors Degree in Occupational Safety and Health, and Masters degree pending the completion of my thesis.
Thank you for the friendship. I would like to invite you to check out my fiction blog. I post free stories on a regular basis as a way of introducing new readers to my work.
Vol 1 is out now and I will be signing copies at the Red Hills Festival in Louisville, MS May 23rd, and a book release event in the same town a couple of weeks later. It has two covers because it contains two Titles.
