I am a retired restaurant and telecom manager with forty years of management, training, and technical writing experience. I retired nine years ago and told my wife I would write a book. This past November we had just returned from her brother's funeral and I wrote a poem for my sister-in-law titled The Empty Chair. My wife and she were both very moved by it and said I should think about writing. When I said "Some day" my wife reminded me that tomorrow isn't guaranteed, and life is too short to keep saying someday. She said either stop talking about it or sit down and do it.

That's when I started writing and I began with a Memoir, thinking it best to start with something I know about. Then the whole Covid controversy came into my head, and I had to get it down on paper (in a Word doc.), so I wrote The Year of the Rat. While writing "Rat" I had an idea for a Private Investigator that failed as a cop but was able to stumble over significant cases and have big wins and I began writing my Blake Franklin Investigations series in January. The first one was finished three weeks later, and the ideas kept coming into my head. I either had to write or suffer an overload of words in my head. Blake Franklin is a manifestation of the failures and setbacks in my life, feeling like I always wanted to do more, have a greater impact, and help more people realize their dreams. Like Blake, I always believe the "good guys" should win. They should never finish last and they certainly should not lose the girl to the bad boys.
