Hi everyone: I'm a retired orthopedic surgeon who traded my knife in for a word processor. Hope to get some instructional information from my fellow authors. I have written both fiction and non-fiction.

I recently had terrific luck with a sawbones replacing my worn-out hip. Next, I'm hoping he'll fix my bum knee, as well.
