The Family . . . .



I’ve written fiction since I was a child, but only for myself and keeping it a secret from most until I was an adult. My wife, Hollie Snider, and I created the Colorado Springs Fiction Writers Group in early 1996, but again I only wrote for myself and shared with the group to better the works I put to page. Over the fifteen year life of the group I focused on making the CSFWG the best critique group possible. I retired as CSFWG president in 2008, though remained active in the group. In late 2009 my wife, being the evil and prickly creature she is, informed me to either start sharing my writing with the public at large or find something else to do with my time. So, my submissions for publication began in 2010.
