Michael Story

Born and raised in Fort Worth and then Burleson, Texas; attended high school in Burleson and then Texas Wesleyan College (now a University) in Fort Worth. Served in the United States Marines during the Vietnam war and again reenlisted in the reserves in 1980 after graduating from college for the Iranian crisis. Returned to college in 1991 to acquire a Texas teaching certification, which led to the foundation for the McGowan Saga's. Spent ten years working with a Government Contractor that assisted the US Gov. in its war on terror from 1999-2009, finally leaving and started a small business before settling down, retiring and then begining to write. With a life time of experiences which to draw from for this novel and future novels along with an insatiable taste for history I intend to be very busy for the next 20 years. The photo shown here is myself and the real Strawberry roan........my Strawberry. He is gone now to the land of forever green grasses. With this first novel finished and all the bugs of a first novel ironed out (I hope) I will be starting the sequel here soon and plan to have it done by late summer of 2015.
