I was born in the southwest corner of Wyoming where I spent the earliest part of my life on a small farm/ranch. As I grew up, so also did the small town in which I lived. There were many hardships as I grew up as most small-town kids experience because of the lack of work for the adults. When I turned eighteen, I enlisted in the Marine Corps and served my country for four years. I spent eighteen months of my enlistment in the Far East, with the last six months of it in Japan. After my time with Uncle Sam, I managed to get a job as a food service manager in the neighboring city of Rock Springs, Wyoming. From there, I went back to school and became an industrial mechanic at one of the Local Trona mines. During my last years of employment, there seemed to be a lot of controversy about Yellowstone and the Volcano which exists there. It seemed to be a constant topic on television, and I became interested in it. When television aired a special on its eruption, I decided I wanted to write a story that I had been toying with in my mind. After I retired, I just sit down one day and began to write. Worlds End Worlds Start is the product of this endeavor. I understand it is not as professionally written as writers such as Koontz or King, but I hope those that read it will enjoy it.
