About the author
The author is a business owner who designs complex software used in the motorsports field. For 40 years he has written novels as a distraction. Software developers and writers get writer's block, it is a part of what we do. I would jump from writing a software program with over a million lines of code, to writing novels. This process seemed to help my mind reenergize to break out of the writer's block. I was able to hone my skills and be more proficient. I never intended to let other people read my novels until this book was written. I stopped calling my writing a "distraction," and started to embrace the process. I believe this book is an excellent read, with memories of my own life. It is fiction, but has more real world personal experiences included. I had fun writing this book. I hope you like it as well.
