Ben Boyd, Jr
Biography
Hello, my name is Ben Boyd, Jr. I am a freelance author and a screen writer. I write science fiction/fantasy novels, short stories, and flash fiction. I also am developing screenplays for each book in the series. Currently, I have written and published AZ2016 NEO and The Qixi Virus, books one and two in The Fall of the Americas series. The rest of the series is being edited and will be published at regular intervals throughout this year and next. A tentative schedule and title of each novel is listed for your convenience at the end of each published novel. My website is www.benboydjr.com
I live, with my wife, on a horse farm in Tennessee near The Great Smoky Mountain National Park. Our farm is named Rooster-Cat Ridge Farm, after our first competition registered quarter horse. When I am not writing or editing, with my wife's help, I grow vegetables, make and bottle fruit wine from our orchard, and grow hay for the horses. I appreciate your comments on my novels if you have the time to spare.
