#MFRWauthor Guy visits #RomanceBeckons for #PNRmonth @thecarphotoguy1

Happy Halloween!

Today we are welcoming Author Guy Ogan to Romance Beckons. He took the long road to becoming an author, has lived a colorful life and brings all that to his books.

Born in Washington D.C. March 11, 1943 I spent the war years at my grandparent's home in Texas with my mother while my father went off to fight. After the war we returned to Arlington, VA awaiting the arrival of my father. I went to school in Northern Virginia until my sophomore year of High School when my father left government service and we moved to Northern California, where I continued to run track and cross-country at Los Altos High School and Foothill Junior College (A.A. degree). 

After Foothill I transferred to Texas Christian University, Fort Worth, TX (B.S. degree) and entered the USAF through AFROTC as a 2nd Lt. I spent a little over 20 years in the service stationed all around the world, including Webb AFB, TX, Lowery AFB, CO, Chanute, AFB, IL, Kadena AB, Okinawa, Bergstrom AFB, TX, Keflivik NAS, Iceland, Camp New Amsterdam, The Netherlands, Dyess AFB, TX and March Field, CA.  While stationed in Holland I completed a M.A Degree from Ball State University's European Campus and upon retirement completed a second Masters (M.Ed.) from Hardin-Simmons University, Abilene, TX during which I wrote a book on assessment and possible treatments for ADHD. I worked for the Texas Dept. of Criminal Justice as a Program Administrator in their Substance Abuse Treatment Program and as an Associate Clinical Psychologist.

I retired from the State of Texas to care for my disabled mother who had Alzheimer's. Upon her death, I cleaned out their files and found the photograph (see page two of "Immortal Relations" that proved what my mother had said when I was just a child. That is the bit of true family history that stirred me to write the first in my "Immortal Relations" series of novels, a unique set of stories exploring that those whom we might at first believe to be enemies, might in fact be our friends and that those touted as "our saviors" might not be.
