Alan Mehrer

His early life consisted of no running water, a wood-burning kitchen range, potbellied stove for winter heat, no refrigerator and outdoor toilet facilities (Otherwise known as Early American Plumbing). This was pretty much the norm for that era and rural location but it also consisted of being amid a broad spectrum of people whom each had their peculiar characteristics, but all were hardworking and honest. Alan went on to many professions. A dental technician, farmhand, gardener, chauffeur, cowboy, electrician, magician, apartment manager, truck driver, construction worker, railroad electrician, Computer Engineer and an Electrical Engineer, to name a few. In each of these life experiences, he met many various characters and experienced diverse circumstances and used these to enrich the texture of his writings.
