He has written numerous articles that have appeared in newspapers and magazines around the U.S. Other than a Navy cruise book, this is the first time his work has appeared in book form.
In addition to drawing on his professional experiences, Mr. Warzyn has also obtained ideas for his writing from the world of music, and from volunteer activities, including being a foster parent for more than 60 children and fostering more than 100 dogs for humane societies over the years, assisting at animal shelters, and participating in nursing home pet therapy.
Mr. Warzyn received his bachelor's degree in English from the University of Missouri in 1973. He attended the Defense Information School at Fort Benjamin Harrison in Indianapolis, where he completed programs in print, photo and broadcast journalism.
He was born in Illinois, grew up in Missouri, and has lived in Indiana, California and Tennessee. He currently resides in Georgia.
Mr. Warzyn is dedicating “Stories for the Seasons” to individuals and groups throughout the United States and around the world who are working to reduce the suffering of animals. He is donating 10 percent of his profits from this book to his local humane society, 10 percent will go to the American Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals, and 10 percent will be donated to the World Society for the Protection of Animals.
Mr. Warzyn's favorite Bible verse is Matthew 25:40 -- “Inasmuch as ye have done it unto one of the least of these my brethren, ye have done it unto me.”view less
