About The Author

You probably know me better as Lucy's dad, or Siren's friend. 

 

Yep, that's me. The scared dad in the back of the ambulance, who reluctantly became a children's book author. 

 

I never set out to write a children's book. But this character of a wolf pup that rides around in an ambulance, helping children feel unafraid, kept bouncing around in my mind, begging to get out. 

 

So I let him out by putting the proverbial pen to paper. And with that, Siren was born. 

 

If you are here on this site, that means you have probably read the book. Thanks for visiting!

 

 

 

Here are a few facts about me that aren't mentioned in the book, Siren the Ambulance Wolf Pup.

 

- I have a daughter Lucy, but she is not my only child. I also have a son named Judah.

- The story of Lucy having seizures and taking a ride in an ambulance is true. However, Judah never fell out of a tree and broke his leg.

- One true fact about Judah did make it into the book. His favorite color is red.

- My first draft of Siren the Ambulance Wolf Pup was over 3,000 words. There was so much I wanted to include, but realized it was too long for a children's book. So I cut down the story quite a bit. 

- I have tried several times to get in touch with the EMTs that helped us that day in the ambulance, but have never been able to reach them. I've been told they no longer work in the county where they helped us. 

- Every night when I put Lucy to bed, Wolfie usually whispers a secret into my ear. Only Lucy and I can understand what he says. I can't explain why.

- My favorite children's book is The Monster at the End of This Book, featuring Grover. "YOU TURNED ANOTHER PAGE!"

- My favorite author is CS Lewis. His series, The Chronicles of Narnia is my all-time favorite book series.

- I was born and raised in Tennessee and I now call East, Tennessee home.

- I LOVE pizza. My favorite pizza topping combo is pepperoni, bacon, jalapeno, and pineapple. Don't knock it until you've tried it.
