Bill Wilson

Bill Wilson grew up in the southeastern United States and graduated from Auburn University in Alabama with a degree in English. He moved to Whidbey Island in Washington State in 1990 after completing a 21-year Air Force career and earning a degree in Journalism from the University of Nebraska at Omaha. He also earned an MBA from the University of Montana while in the Air Force. After settling on Whidbey Island, Bill became an award-winning journalist, a college English instructor and a marketing writer for a scientific equipment company. He now lives with his wife Myrna near the northwest shore of the island. They spend their winters on Big White Mountain near Kelowna B.C. in Canada where they volunteer for the Royal Canadian Mounted Police and previously for the ski resort as Snow Hosts. Now retired from all but writing and the honey-do list, he remains a slave to the fickle muses and the snow fall on Big White Mountain.
