You would think that a self-proclaimed writer could easily write a biography about themselves. Here's my sad attempt.

I mostly grew up in Waukegan, IL. Yeah, that's right, the hometown of Jack Benny and Ray Bradbury, even Jerry Orbach spent some time there. You would think that growing up in Jack Benny's hometown would aspire me to be something besides a data analyst and you'd be right.

After I turned 21, I headed for the great state of Wisconsin and I've never looked back. I love Wisconsin. It is truly the best of the Midwest states. I live in Racine with my wife of five years and our furry children: Skywalker, M'Lady, Cole and Mr. Mann. We have one grown child and twin grandsons. This has to be the best part of life.

I started writing soon after leaving the womb. My biggest fault is that I write the story in my head and once I've figured out the ending, the story ends without being written. I like being on Writer's Cafe because I'm hoping my fellow writers can inspire me to actually finish a full novel.
