About this title

About the Author

Jack Randy Martin's life experiences allow him to bring a wide variety of personalities, places, occupations, relationships and hobbies into his stories and characters. He was born in Texas, raised in the wilds of Upper Michigan, educated (college) in Ohio and has lived his adult life in California. In this journey, he has worked as paperboy, ice cream server, tour guide, truck stop attendant, pipeline worker, mechanic, radar/avionics engineer, service department manager, limousine chauffeur, computer software engineer and author. He is an adoptee and a cancer survivor, married 26 years with 5 children, 5 cats, 5 dogs, 3 sheep, 2 goats and a dove. Somewhere between career and family, he has pursued his interests in motorcycle racing/riding, marathons and triathlons. Each of his stories covers a diverse range of places, people and events, and each has its own underlying theme. His first novel, I Ran to Alva, focused on forgiveness. His second, Heart of the Desert, focused on grudges and their costs. His most recent one, The Six, focuses on the good and bad impacts guilt can have in our lives. These and other core sentiments live in the heart of every human being, rich or poor, young or old, male or female, atheist or believer, and it is the exploration of these core sentiments that comprise the foundations of his stories.
