Hello -
If you are reading this thanks for taking an interest in my work. I love feedback.
I am a shy, quiet introvert.
I have traveled to 49 states, 6 continents, 4 oceans, 20+ and counting countries and many seas. I have ridden motorcycles, skydived over 450 times and flown planes.
I have walked the plains of Africa, danced with the Maasai, and seen the top of Mt. Kilimanjaro. Seen the penguins of Antarctica.
I have watched the birth of my daughter and was there at the death of my mother.
My father left when I was eleven. I found him later in life and spent two father's days with him before his passing.
I am a kind person, but every day I work at being kinder.
I am a generous person, but I wish to do more.
I am a good person, but I strive to be better.
I have made money and lost money.
I have made mistakes and I always try to learn from them so I don't repeat them.
I have attended eight colleges and never graduated. I only study what I have an interest in.
I retired at 45 and hated it. Took acting at 46 and was on stage for a play.
I was vacationing in the Bahamas and got adopted by a dozen college students on spring break so I had my first spring break experience at 50 and again at 51. They taught me that dancing on the bar in a bathing suit is all right. LOL. Not a pretty sight!
I took up painting at 58 and writing at 61.
I plan to stop working at 70 but who knows.
If you have read this far, what else can I say?
My #1 goal of writing is for one person to feel the passion I feel when I write a story and then tell me.
My #1 fear in life is rejection. #2 is probably heights.
I love to laugh and I am a terrible singer.
My daughter is a music teacher outside of Boston and a great singer. She is my greatest achievement by far.
I hope you have a great day.
Oh, my name is Bruce and I am 63 and married.
