D. Warren Von (1963-present) was born in Cleveland, Ohio and grew up in Berea, Ohio. He currently works as a fire inspector for a state health department and previously served over twenty-five years as a health physicist in their radiation protection program. After decades of writing formal letters, reports, and policies & procedures, he finds the journeys of his fictional characters to be so much more rewarding than the technical writing required for his occupational circumstances. When he’s not working or writing, he can usually be found seeking new modified adventures to enjoy with his loving wife of twenty-seven years and their adult special needs son. He has two additional adult children who join his adventures when they are not off creating their own.
