About The Author

C Edwin Mack, born and raised in western Nebraska, I spent 30 years as a solo OB/GYN practitioner in rural Minnesota after a stint in the Navy. Never claiming to be a "writer," I've always enjoyed writing. This work is total fiction, but it is hard to escape the lives we've led. I recently resurrected and rewrote it with fond memories of the times and especially the people in my life when it was first written in1998.
