Your Host
Name: Fred Warren
Home: Kansas, USA
Family: I’m married to the world’s most enchanting woman, have 3 kids (one son out on his own, one son in college and a teenage daughter. Oy.), and support 2 dogs who eat and bark entirely too much–and not necessarily in that order.
Occupation: Military Tech Support. Retired from the Air Force after 24 years of service, and still serving proudly as a slimy defense contractor.
I enjoy playing around with computers, hiking/camping, birdwatching, stargazing, puzzles of any sort, and recreational reading (SF&F is my favorite, but I’ll read just about anything).
I also like to write, and I’ve been trying to do that more seriously over the past couple of years. I have no illusions of being a great writer or otherwise “all that and a bag of chips.” I’m learning, having fun, and seeing how far I can go with it. Check the “Publications” tab for my current stuff in print and online.
My first novel, The Muse, a modern fantasy tale of inspiration both divine and diabolical, will hit the streets in November 2009. More information is available under the tab labeled, oddly enough, “The Muse.”
My original Articles of Confrederation for the blog are here, although I think I may have violated the prohibition on Top Ten lists at least once, and the focus of this site is now mostly on my writing. Other musings are now going onto my livejournal page, and I do cross-post between the two from time to time.
Disclaimer/claimer: I link to a lot of things in this blog, and some of the people and content to which I link do not share my faith, values, and/or worldview. I try to link quality material that is interesting, thought-provoking, and sometimes even useful, but a link does not constitute a blanket endorsement. If you have a problem with something I’ve linked, please let me know.

November’s banner features a troop train in France, transporting some valiant doughboys from the U.S. Army’s Fourth Division to the front. The photo comes from the Military History Institute archives at Ft. Carlisle, PA, and can be found at http://warchronicle.com/units/US/4th/combat.htm , along with more information about the exploits of 4th Division.
