I grew up and spent almost my entire life in Texas. During my teenage years, I witnessed the birth of the women''s liberation movement. During those years, I witnessed women of all ages reaching inside themselves to be everything they wanted to be. I watched, as women took jobs as trucker drivers, mechanics, forklift operators, welders and much, much, more.
Being born the youngest of five children, I was the baby-brother to three older sisters. Although I looked up to and admired my father, a simple hard
working man, I had always admired my mother and older sisters, who in one way or the other kept their families going.
While in high school, I never even considered writing professionally. However, I did enjoy
writing short stories periodically; especially comedies. Like any kid, I read comics with the usual super heroes. I was always disappointed that the super heroines always seemed to take a back seat; mainly, it seemed they were there to add elegance and beauty to the page.
My desire in the seventies to the present day was to find a heroine that held center stage, like their male counterparts did on television and in the movies. I never did quite find what I was looking for, so I invented one of my own in Desert''s Dawn.weniger sehen
