Joseph Faust

I was born April 25th in a small farming town out in the southwest corner of Colorado. Raised working the family cattle farm instilled a hard work ethic in me. I am the oldest of three siblings, and we often got into trouble as kids. Growing up, we didn't have much; but my parents did their best to make our childhood as good as it could be. My brother and me carried on the family tradition of Boy Scouts, and both of us earned our Eagle Scout rank. I developed a passion for art and music in school. I play the saxophone, baritone sax is my favorite, and enjoy listening to all types of music. Science and math are my favorite subjects; ironically I barely passed English yet I love to write stories. After high school I enlisted in the Navy, serving honorably for eight years. I am divorced, and have a beautiful daughter who is my whole world. My education includes UTI's marine mechanics institute, and Southern Technical College. I am a member of the Alpha Beta Kappa honor society, and hold an Applied Associate's Degree in Welding Technologies. I love to wood work, make metal art, oxy-fuel welding, making jewelry, reading books by my favorite authors, writing my stories, spending time in the outdoors, visiting family, and above all else being with my daughter. I hope everyone enjoys my books.
