Marshall W. Huffman did not set out to be a published author. Most of his writing was for personal satisfaction. His wife, Susan, consistently tried to talk him into submitting his work for publication but the idea of rejection deterred him.

It wasn’t until 2012 that he finally gave in and at her insistence e-published his first book, THE END. That almost turned out to be a disaster when he accidentally published the rough draft instead of the finished book.

After that little setback and of course, republishing the finished manuscript, his writing career has really taken off.

Marshall’s first trilogy is THE EVENT and consists of THE END, THE BEGINNING, and THE REVELATION. His second trilogy is called THE SECOND CIVIL WAR. BOOK I- A NATION DI Marshall W.

It wasn’t until 2012 that he finally gave in and at her insistence e-published his first book, THE END. That almost turned out to be a disaster when he accidentally published the rough draft instead of the finished book.

After that little setback and of course, republishing the finished manuscript, his writing career has really taken off.

Marshall’s first trilogy is THE EVENT and consists of THE END, THE BEGINNING, and THE REVELATION. His second trilogy is called THE SECOND CIVIL WAR. BOOK I- A NATION DIVIDED; BOOK II - A NATION AT WAR; and BOOK III - A NATION HEALING. The series is a look at today's world and what could well happen within the next few years.

He has also published a series of books entitled: THE LOGAN FILES with a central cast of characters. In addition, he has another series entitled: THE NORRIS FILES with its own set of central characters. He enjoys writing mysteries, techno-thrillers, and Sci-Fi.

His newest books THE BRINK – DEEP FLIGHT and THE BRINK – DAY OF RECKONING are intense techno-thrillers with Sci-Fi intertwined. His latest addition is CHIMERA. It is a look at what could well happen if we don’t stop twisting science in perverted way.

Marshall was born in Bainbridge, Georgia and grew up in Indiana. After spending eight years in the Navy, he attended Ball State University, earning a B.S. degree in Business.

During and after college, he was involved in the restaurant business and spent the next twenty-five years in all types of venues, eventually owing his own fine dining restaurant. After years of long hours, he decided on a career change.

He attended Eastern Illinois University earning a MBA. Because of his business background, Eastern Illinois University asked him to teach in the hospitality management program. He was recruited from Eastern to Parkland College and soon took over as the Program Director for the Hospitality Program.

During his tenure there, he became a chef and had a television show called Cooking around the World with Chef Marshall and taught a series of cooking classes for Continuing Education as well.

Professor Huffman retired from teaching along with his wife, Dr. Susan Huffman, to Tampa Bay Florida.

You can find his books under: MARSHALL HUFFMAN at Amazon.com.

New Angie Bartoni Book due soon

I am working on a new Angie Bartoni book and hope to finish it soon. I just love this feisty detective who isn't about to take any guff from anyone. She doesn't profess to be a 'tough guy' but she knows how to be assertive and knows when to fight and when to let it go. I love her wit and sense of humor when everything seems about to go South.

The next book is "Nothing to Lose" and should be out by Read more of this blog post »

M.W.’s Quotes

“There are three different types of men in this world: There are weak men- men who run and hide when life slaps them in the ass. Then, there are men- men who have a backbone, yet occasionally, then life slapps them in the ass, will rely on others. And then, there are real men- men who don't cry or complain, who don't just have a backbone, then are the backbone. Men who make their own decisions and live with the consequences and who accept responsiblity for their actions or words. Men who, when life slaps them in the ass, slap back and move on.”
― Madeline Sheehan
