I was born and raised outside the city of Lincoln, in the small village of Malcolm, NE. In my day job I am a preacher, but in other areas of life I am a photographer, and lover of all things fantasy. My wife and I live in Cheyenne, WY, and have four kids. When I'm not writing or preaching, you can find me at my friendly local game store playing Magic: The Gathering and other board games. The Forgotten Light will be my first novel.
