A frequent contributor to the Old Huntsville magazine, John has been continuously published since March of 2016 and is scheduled until January of 2017 in the same publication, with his serial story, Scruffy-a novel about a homeless veteran suffering from PTSD and the equally homeless dog that befriends him. Scruffy will be released as a novel on March 15th, 2017 initially available on Amazon.com

John lives with his wife and co-author, Marlene Rose, who joined forces with him in 1973 and immediately began to encourage his writing. She became his inspiration, and her ideas and expertise proved to be a vital element in creating many of their published works. Now the author of eight published novels and many published poems, John writes for The American Legion from Post 237 in Huntsville, Alabama where he serves on the Honor Guard and teaches Creative Writing at the Huntsville-Madison Senior Center. Recently he has accepted the position of Chapter Director for a future Pets for Vets chapter to be established in Huntsville. He is also the Director of the Rescue Me!
