A little about us.
After graduating from the University of Montana, raising three beautiful daughters, exploring nine different career paths, traveling to Egypt, Great Britain, most of the United States, and flunking retirement three times, my long suffering wife and I finally began concentrating on things we enjoy.
Along the way I started writing, took a some college courses in creative writing, wrote a few short stories and received honorable mention for a short story called Scaling Rexford published in the University of Oregon’s 1992 West Wind Review. I eventually turned that short story into a full length novel entitled Scaling Tall Timber published in 2010
We now spend the winter months in Arizona and summer visiting our children in Montana and South Dakota. I’ve found a new passion for photography to compliment my attempts at writing. When I’m not writing, researching, or chasing photo opportunities, I can usually be found standing ankle-deep in my woodworking shop’s sawdust.
I now have four books in print and available online at Amazon and Barnes and Noble. All are also available as eBooks in most formats from Amazon, B&N, Smashwords and many other online sources.
Some, though not all, of the characters and events depicted in my prose are based on people I’ve met during my long and varied careers. They interested me and I wanted their story told. The rest are products of a wild imagination.

I am also retired (L.A. Investigator) and have followed my other passions, writing, photography, woodworking…am currently residing in Southern Illinois…think 1950′s but would like to get back to the future somewhere in New Mexico. I have yet to set up a website but will soon. On writing.com I’m Anderson Dana, which, if ever, will be used for publishing. I will follow your work as I enjoy your style…
Appreciate the kind words. Sounds like we have a lot in common. The picture at the top of this site is one I took of the upper Big Hole Valley in Montana. Keep on writing. I will look you up on Writing.com also.
