Short Bio:

Been writing since the late 80's. Mostly as a hobby until recently. Decided it is time to take a run at being published. Member of three writer's groups in Dallas. Networking face-to-face is important. Have a vanity book on Amazon. A story I concocted after finding a noir dictionary and seeing if I could write a tale using it. Queen Takes King's Pawn. Wrote it years ago and am much better now.

About VietVetTx's Reading & Writing

I like books. I like the written word. I think words are the most important aspect of life. They create love, hate, war, debate, and can express to a child how special they are. Without words, we are mimes. In which case investing in the make-up industry would be advisable.
