D. Nathan Hilliard lives in Spring, Texas with his veterinarian wife, two children, and two cats. He draws his inspiration from a childhood living in different small Texas towns, accented by teen years spent in western New Mexico. He has experienced life through a diverse collection of jobs ranging from meter reading and being an assistant manager at a convenience store, to working at cotton gins, window factories, and uranium mills. After coming down with Charcot Marie Tooth (CMT) at the turn of the century, Mr. Hilliard now happily settles for tending house, raising his kids, and exploring the field of writing.
Way to go, Nate!! Congrats.
ReplyDeleteI want to know when he will be able to keep in the style to which I want to become accustomed?!
ReplyDeleteA fig upon such base considerations! I am an artiste! I channel the muses for the edification of mankind, not for the attainment of filthy lucre!
ReplyDeleteWell, you sure are doing a fine job on that last point!
ReplyDeleteBah. Such bourgeoisie concerns are unworthy of me. Consider the peacock, it neither toils nor does it spin, yet it doth wear hot threads.
