I know you're supposed to do third person here, but that seems rather impersonal.

I enjoy post-apocalyptic and dystopian books and have since I was probably 12 years old. My English teacher read us a story called “The Girl Who Owned a City” by OT Nelson. The idea of a virus wiping out all the adults, well everyone above the age of 13 (if I'm remembering correctly), was extremely intriguing.

At the time, I was spending a good majority of my younger days exploring the woods that wound their way through my neighborhood. (I wouldn’t be surprised if some of my forts were still nailed up in a few trees somewhere back there.) Building something from nothing has always had a place in my heart, and I’ve always kind of found that tucked into most books I know you're supposed to do third person here, but that seems rather impersonal.

I love my country--the good and the bad. All things come with both sides. I served 14 years in the Air National Guard and deployed to Iraq in 2010. I work full-time as a police officer for the City of Cincinnati. I believe in service before self. I believe in helping those who don’t have the means to help themselves.

A little about my work:

I published my first work in 2017 - a crime/suspense novella. Definitely out of genre, but I had a story that needed writing. Once I got that out of my system, I buckled down and got to work on a... Children's book? Yeah, I know. Something else I needed to get out of my system, right? But seriously, now, I'm focused on post-apocalyptic books oftentimes teetering on dystopian.

My first series is the Almawt Virus Series. The novels are titled Days Since... and each book follows a different character. The overall plot of the series continues forward through each installment, but through different vantage points.

In the Almawt Virus Series, a virus destroys life as we know it. Who's going to bring society back together? Post-apocalyptic life can seem impossible, but humans will persevere despite setbacks. Not all will live. Those in power will choose. It's a battle between the good and evil of the characters. Who's good? That's for you to decide.

Hey! Hey! I'm very excited to announce that the first draft for the fourth installment in the Almawt Virus series is finished. It took me just over 3 months to complete it, and I'm hoping, HOPING, that it won't take me nearly as long to clean it up. So... in celebration, here is the cover reveal for the newest book Days Since... Battle for River's Edge: Day 995
