About the author

Born in the savage wilderness of Columbus, Ohio and then browbeaten for creativity for 18 years in the slightly more farm town-ish community of Marysville, OH William learned early how to read and tell stories. Later he discovered comic books and loved all the flashy colors. Then as time went by comic books became more than interesting colors and evolved their storytelling. Now, after having traveled the country he has returned to the roost where he generates the beautiful and the terrible for his own enjoyment and a modest profit.
