About the Author

                    Stan Briney’s penchant for creativity and detail is well-known in his art endeavors; however, it was only after he had successfully published his life story called “Self Portrait” that his interest was drawn to free-lance fiction writing.

With this interest has now come this anthology of moving and action-packed stories.

                    At a very young age, while growing up in the Midwest, the author displayed a gift for drawing.  He graduated from medical school after receiving both Bachelor and Master degrees at the State University of Iowa.  With a specialty practice in Radiology he enjoyed a long distinguished career in medicine while living in Fort Worth, Texas.

                   While nurturing his interest in art throughout life, following his retirement in 1995, he has established a successful new career as a professional artist.  Today his award-winning bronze sculptures, pencil, and pen/ink drawings are found in private collections, schools, homes, and offices throughout the United States and abroad.

                    Briney and his wife reside in their country home in the cattle ranching area of north central Texas where he has his studio and gallery.
