About the Author

 

I know that I am supposed to write this part in the third person so that you won’t think it is me, but I don’t want to follow the rules.

Hi!  I’m Joel Wilson and the author of the novel, "Rescue of the Heart."  I apologize that I don’t have the initials after my name that would represent my level of education.  I did attend some college where I studied British Literature and English Composition, but due to an unfortunate event in my life, I ran out of money and could no longer afford college.  That, however, has not derailed my desire to write.  It seems to be the one thing I do best; of course you will be the judge of that and I will cherish your opinion deeply.

Most of my education comes from life itself and the people I have known or come into contact with.  I have worn many hats; from fast food cook, to garbage man; from warehouse worker to selling insurance and to computer specialist working for Uncle Sam.  Yes, I've been kicked around a lot, but I've learned so much.

I love sports, art, a good story and I think that school teachers are the greatest hero's who are ridiculously underpaid and unappreciated.

I was born in Little Rock, Arkansas where lived most of my life.  Thank God I finally met my wife on a trip to Denver, Colorado and that is where I now reside.  My wife is Tina and she is my inspiration; the love of my life.  All our children have left the nest and now we have two dogs that we call our kids.

Thank you for taking the time to get to know me.  I hope you like the work.

My Readers

...will be mostly female and most likely professional.  There is a lot that will interest males because my story's do have much action and violence.  However, women of all walks of life will relate to my characters because I don't write about princes and princesses.  My characters will tend to be everyday people, people you meet and people of fiction that you may recognize.
