Rider Magazine links

I’ve had a bit of luck in the writing game. Five of my stories have been accepted for publication by Rider Magazine. Three are presented here. The first two were based on my 2011 Alaska ride. Adventure on the Alcan: From Dawson Creek to Delta Junction and Beyond, centers on the Alaska Highway portion. It ran in October 2013. The Haul Road: Taming Alaska’s Dalton Highway covers the Arctic portion. It ran in the April 2012 issue. Windblown Amy: Artist Rider Survivor is the third piece. It is a story I wanted to write ever since my first Alaska ride but didn’t feel I had the skill to do justice to until now. It centers on a remarkable female rider I met on the road to Alaska. Bleeding Kansas and The Tiddler Run are slated for future publication. I’ll post an update when they run.

Writing is a solitary endeavor. Still, numerous people have helped along the way. Rider Editor-in-Chief Mark Tuttle gave me a big break. I also want to thank the Modern Language Department at Purdue North Central, particularly my professors Sarah White and Jerry Holt. I wouldn’t have gotten this far without them.
