Who We Are
Judy, an English and theatre arts teacher for twenty-eight years, now writes plays, fiction
and nonfiction. She has also won several awards for her poetry.
Ron, twenty-seven years a Marine, enlisted and officer, retired in 1991. He then taught
science and computers, worked as a freelance editor, and now writes fiction as well as
nonfiction.
We usually write as a team.
We have three grown children, Nathan, Cheryl, and Brent, with families of their own.
Our Interests
We love travel and we have lived in many different countries - Japan, Thailand, Cuba and
Vietnam, and visited many others. We've lived in many parts of the United States, but we
love the West. We've settled on the outskirts of Kerrville, in the beautiful Hill Country of
Texas. To stay current in our craft we belong to the Authors Guild, Western Writers of
America, and Women Writing the West. What plans do we have for the future? To write.
Highlights
Our first novel, The Search For Truth, was released April 24, 2005, by Avalon Books,
Thomas Bouregy & Company, Inc. A companion novel, The Search For Freedom, came
out in February 2007. The third book in the Telegraph Series, The Search For Justice, is
now due for release in February, 2009. Ron's nonfiction, The First Black United States
Marines: The Men of Montford Point, 1942 - 1946, was released by McFarland & Co.
Publishers on July 2, 2007. The "official" release date was October 2007, to give
reviewers a look at it.
We have also written magazine articles, encyclopedia entries, and Judy has co-authored
several Spanish-English plays.

| "Writes" of Passage |
Many stories that are told and handed down from generation to generation
are tales about rites of passage. They reflect our growth in both small
things and large: from youth to adulthood, from understanding right and
wrong, from shouldering responsibilities to life-changing decisions. They
are sometimes humorous and sometimes heartfelt, but always they move
our lives along.
An author writes of such passages in the best way he or she can, and
hopes the reader will enjoy the tale.
