    Gary's Interests
GeneralOutdoors, 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.
MusicOldies, Do-Wop, some country and country rock.
MoviesAlmost any western or mountain man! Love action/adventure.
TelevisionNot much of a T.V. viewer, but again, I enjoy good traditional westerns.
BooksMine 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.
HeroesJohn Wayne, my grandfather, Mark Twain, and Win Blevins

About me:

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 a graduate of a number of U.S. Air Force Survival Schools, including Arctic, Water (Sea and Ocean), Mountain, and Jungle survival schools. I spent twelve years teaching parachuting techniques and survival skills to Air Force aircrew members as a Life Support Instructor.

I grew up in the Missouri Ozarks, where my grandfather introduced me to fishing and hunting while teaching me a deep respect for nature. Currently I live in Pearl, Mississippi. 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. My non-fiction book, “Simple Survival, A Family Outdoor Guide” was recently awarded a silver medal for excellence from the Military Writers Society of America. I am a member of the Western Writers of America, Military Writers Society of America (MWSA), Southern Humorists Group, America Authors Association (AAA), and the Mississippi Wildlife Federation.

I am now a member of the Western Writers of America and listed on their Authors Page.

Currently I work as a freelance Wilderness Survival and Outdoor writer for a number of North American Magazines (Buck Masters, Modern Survival, Big Game Hunt, 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.
