Publisher info

RC has done many things, including serving in the U.S. Navy, where he dreamt up a number of stories that he might revisit when he decides he can actually figure up a valid plot for them. He has a Bachelor’s Degree from Bentley University in Accounting. And he spent seven years out of the first thirteen in the twenty first century unemployed due to the combination of the economy, bad luck, and just plain old poor judgment, during which he found he also had a knack for training pups in Basic Manners and Show Behaviors, along with midwifing show pup litters and writing sentences that are far too long.

When he joined the Rebel Squadrons in 1996, he found that the in-mission briefings that could be written to go along with the missions he was creating for Grey Squadron were far too limited to tell the story he wanted to tell to tie the space flight combat simulation game missions together into a coherent Tour of Duty. It was here that he found a love for storytelling. RC’s reputation for story telling was so well known throughout the RS that the club’s twelve person squadron limit was waived, and Grey Squadron had over sixty people join in the first two weeks of Grey’s Tour 5, which was based in the second space combat flight simulation game in the sequence. The RS members who survived Tour 5 felt that the T5 fiction, which ended up over 600 pages long, was far better than most of the related fiction available commercially.

RC feels that a ‘Great Author’ is someone who can reach out of the story, grab your heart, and make you feel anything they want you to feel, to the extent that they want you to feel it, and the only choice you have is to close the book. However …that same author can also reach out from that same closed book and make you open it back up again. …that being said …RC has aspirations of Literary Grandeur.
