He joined the Navy at eighteen, sailing across the world on the U.S.S. McClusky. After completing his military service, he earned a PhD in American literature at the University of Kentucky, where he currently teaches writing.
He enjoys doing just about anything outdoors—including hiking, kayaking, snowboarding, and gardening—but reading and writing remain his favorite pursuits.view less
