BIO:

In a previous lifetime, William Joseph Roberts was an F-15 mechanic and Staff Sergeant in the United States Air Force. He has traveled the world and experienced many things in his few years. He has been called a Jack of all trades, a Renaissance man, and an insane squirrel wrangler by his peers.

Since his enlistment ended, he has purused careers as an industrial and architectural designer, design engineer, and is now an award-winning author, editor, and publisher with Three Ravens Publishing.

William Joseph Roberts currently resides in the quaint southern town of Chickamauga, Georgia with his loving wife, three freaky-smart nerd children, and a small pack of fur babies.

Okay, so that was the short, no shit B.S. answer that I usually submit with stories as my bio on the off chance that someone actually likes my work and decides to publish it.

The true answer to the question is so very much deeper and full of it when you really get down and dirty. Got yer hip waders on? It’s about to get mighty deep.

Once upon a time in the dark and remote forests of southern West Virginia, a child of strange talents and even stranger curiosities was born. He grew to become an artist, musician, rebel without a clue, and an all-around Jack of all trades.

Then, in what seemed like a heartbeat, the time had passed and reached the point where one must stretch forth and soar on one’s own. So he flew (literally, on a small puddle jumper straight into the hell that is the Atlanta airport), from the safety of the mountains into the great wide world beyond. He enlisted in the United States Air Force, traveled the world, experienced all that life was willing to share with him. Before leaving the service and beginning a new chapter in his life, our fearless adventurer achieved the rank of Staff Sergeant. (That’s four stripes for y’all that don’t know.) He was medically separated with an Honorable discharge in November 2004 during one of the military’s many downsizings.

At this point in our hero’s life, Things had grown to become chaotic and unknown. Divorced, no job, no home, and no clue what the next step would be until a suggestion came to him on the voice of a sexy little nymph, who had enchanted and cast a spell on the unsuspecting hero.

The witchy little nymph took in our hero, who worked hard and proved himself worthy as a house husband, (I prefer house bitch, but ya know, some of y’all might be sensitive and all,) while completing both architectural and industrial drafting and design degrees.

Shortly thereafter, life once again shifted. Our hero found himself in the Chattanooga area, married, working in a cubical farm, and now, a father.

There have been many ups and many downs over the years. I have learned and grown on so many levels. And no matter the amount of chaos thrown in my direction, I have always returned to my writing, for creative expression, comfort, and solace. It is the one thing that I love above all else, topped only by my loving wife and crazy kids.

Besides all of the other things listed above, I enjoy way too many hobbies to list here. Just a quick few, are…..

• Blacksmithing
• Motorcycles
• Stone carving
• Brewing
• Fermentation
• Gardening
• Fishing
• Hunting
• 3D design
• Drawing/sketching
• Playing Guitar
• And of course, Writing. 🙂

So, hopefully, all of that stuff above gives you a better idea of who I am and how I operate. If not, always feel free to ask a question. What’s the worst thing that might happen?
