Ann Thompson, a native-born European, spent her early years in northeastern France, where she dreamt of a life in the United States. She eventually graduated from UCLA with a Baccalaureate degree in English and went on to serve a six-year stint as an officer in the United States Army in the mid-seventies. Since then, she has had a twenty-year career in engineering technical writing. A writer with an excellent technical writing resume but no publishing credentials, four years ago she finally had the opportunity to do some creative writing, trying to find her writing voice and working on her first novel, Voluntary Force. She has had a diverse background and cultivated varied interests, foremost of which has been a life-long interest in the NASA Space Program. Ann and her husband Ralph, parents of two sons, have made their home on Florida’s Space Coast in Brevard County, site of John F. Kennedy Space Center and Cape Canaveral.
