    A. D. Nance

    Originally from Oklahoma, I now reside on the Carolina coast. I wrote Leonardo Who? in 1993, then revised and published in 2013. In 1997 I was able to write an account of my 6+ years I lived in New York. In April 2014 I published Poems of a Common Man - a collection of poems and song over the decades. In May 2014, part one of an upward looking epic fantasy was published - My Stars and Other Highlights. The writing is complete. The artwork is in progress. Audio version part one is at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-FWeQT4z37c I hope to continue walking on beaches with my #1'star' Sally.
