About the author

I went from the school of hard knocks into the Army 82nd Airborne. When I got out of the service I started a retail security job that did not pay the bills; I worked every odd job and under the table cash jobs I could find.

I have always loved to read, and I liked to write short stories. When I "retired" a bit early I decided to put my writing to the test, now multiple Gordan Hudde books in, I'm looking for readers to take my writing to the next step!

My Retail Investigator book was fun and I have been getting many good reviews, maybe I should write a biography to include my military service?

Feel free to contact me, let me know how I'm doing!
