Braxton can't lay claim to wanting to be a writer all his life, although his mother and seventh grade English teacher were convinced he had what it would take. A bachelor's degree in Bio-Medical Engineering led to medical school and a residency in Emergency Medicine. He served for a decade in the U.S. Army Medical Corps with tours such as the Chief, Emergency Medical Services at Fort Campbell, KY, and as a research Flight Surgeon at Fort Rucker, AL.

I'm currently reading your book, Looks That Deceive which is set in St. Louis. I'm from St. Louis and it warms the cockles of my heart to hear of familiar places. I actually lived about a mile from the Richmond Heights police station and banked at that wedge shaped bank on Big Bend. Did you live in St. Louis for a time? I am enjoying your book very much.

I'm glad you're enjoying Looks that Deceive. Yes, we lived in St. Louis for 32 years, only recently moving to Wisconsin to be closer to our daughter. So many authors seem to set their stories in the big cities like Boston, NYC, Washington, or LA, that I thought mine should be closer to home. In the next book, Rescued and Remembered, an older couple is introduced as minor characters in the series. They live in Ferguson, where we lived for 28 of those 32 years, and their home is the historic home I restored while we lived there.(less)

Seriously though, I become inspired when I see various social injustices in the news. Sometimes it's difficult to sit down and follow through by actually writing. (That's where the red wine helps ... lol).
