In 2007 he met the love of his life, Ann, whom he married on 29 February 2008. He has five children and three grandchildren. He presently lives in Phoenix Arizona.

Writing has long been his passion. With his first novel, A RUBY FOR VICTOR, was released in June of 2012. This was followed in September of 2018 with DEBTS OF BLOOD. Yes, these are vampire novels, but they provide a unique twist, a refreshing take on the genre, along with strong science fiction elements. They are a mix of self discovery, intrigue, passions, suspense and a commentary on our modern world. Interestingly, these novels grew out of a series of short stories he wrote in 1989-1990 at the urging of a good friend. His writing seeks to make the reader think along with being entertaining. There will be at least eight more novels to come.

He has a Kindle Vella project as well, titled SHATTERED WORLDS. No vampires, totally different experience.

Ronald is a proud member of the Phoenix Writers Club and Society of Southwestern Authors.
