Author bio

W.E. White learned to love the art of storytelling from a young age, listening to his family tell stories around the kitchen table. Joining the Canadian Forces was a way for him to satisfy the urge of adventure, to be the protagonist in his own life’s story. He is now living the next chapter in Northern Canada and enjoys writing at his desk with a cup of coffee or a glass of scotch, adding in a spice of himself to his stories to rekindle his desire for adventure.
