The author is  a native of the wonderful state of Texas and calls Houston home, but my mailing address is "overseas." I spent over twenty years in the United States Army, encompassing active duty, Texas National Guard, and Army Reserve duty. I have two children: a boy and a girl, both of whom have endured the college experience. I am an avid traveler who enjoys immersing himself in other cultures. I've lived in the Philippines, Korea, Germany, Kuwait, and the Dominican Republic, as well as most recently in Colombia. I have always been passionate about learning and exploring new places. My military background has given me a unique perspective on the world, and I am grateful for the opportunities it has afforded me. Even though I was not involved in the process, as a parent, I am proud of my children's achievements in overcoming the difficulties of college. Traveling has been a significant part of my life, and I continue to seek out new experiences and connections with people from all walks of life. My time spent living in various countries has enriched my understanding of different cultures and broadened my worldview.

I am presently enrolled at DeVry College. My objective in attending college is to gain a more comprehensive understanding of the complexities of American society, the internal and external battles for its soul, and the inclination toward self-destruction that defines it. I have just completed my first novel The Last Alamo is a memoir that tells the poignant yet courageous story of an American from Houston, Texas, who successfully joined the Army and fulfilled a long-inspired familial legacy to serve his country. The Last Alamo delves into Tyler's career in the U.S. military, detailing the challenges he faced, including discrimination among the people he fought to honor and protect, and his reconciliation with his "dark passenger," who had been with him since a childhood trauma. Tyler is vulnerable in his collection of essays, as he expresses his fears in a moment of crisis that ultimately saved him and his squad. Fulton Books is the publisher of the book. I selected this publisher due to the diverse selection of options and the potential for my book to be adapted into a screenplay. I am presently in the process of composing my second novel, "Twenty-Seven Years A Slave."

I discovered solace in the comfort of cocaine during a period of emotional anguish and vulnerability. As a father who was struggling with a failing marriage and the agony of deceptive love, my initial encounter with crack provided a transient respite from reality. I had no idea that this decision would have an enduring effect on my perception of romance and my relationship with my daughter and son. I invite you to join me in contemplating the lessons learned from that fateful night and the repercussions of seeking solace in substances. These actions cost me twenty-seven years of my life, my rights as a parent and father, my rights as a wage provider for my family, my self-respect, and my soul. Prepare for an exhilarating journey through the shadowy realm of addiction and the luminosity of recovery, as this novel is scheduled for publication next year. I am grateful for your assistance in promoting xombie and me.
