edit data

Aaron D McClelland originally hailed from Vancouver, British Columbia intimately familiar with the streets where many of his stories take place. McClelland has written professionally for 40 years, crafting stories, articles, and plays that other people wanted. Now he is writing for himself, exploring territory laid down by years of experience as soldier, fencer, therapist, and observer of all things.

McClelland pens gritty tales peopled with imperfect heroes and heroines. If you want perfect characters, read someone else's books. If you want people you can relate to, read his.

McClelland now lives in a lakeside community in the Okanagan region where tourists come to die. ...more
