Why I Wrote Eclipse of the Triple Moons

Book One of the Mountain King Series

Over the years I have written short stories for my own enjoyment and started a couple of books, but never had the fortitude to finish the books. I found myself distracted by work, family and other business ideas that I thought were more important than writing.

But one day an idea came to me about a boy who wants to rescue a girl and finds that going through a cave he is transported to another planet. A planet where magic is real and the dangers of wild animals, strange people and bizarre customs are just as real.

The book was inspired by a photograph I found on the Glacier National Park's website. A simple photograph of the photographer standing in a tunnel in winter in Glacier National Park, Montana. The image showed icicles hanging from the tunnel exit with large boulders hugging the wall behind. Looking at the boulders and rocks, I saw images of people and horses and a story developed of a boy searching out the Mountain King.

A dream turned this fanciful world into a book and it led three years later to my first published novel, Eclipse of the Triple Moons
