Hank Taylor grew up learning to love reading from an early age. His parents read to his brother and him from Uncle Arthur’s Bedtime Stories and Treasure Island. He holds a degree in chemistry with a minor in physics. If you had told him he would be a published author one day, he would have laughed when he was younger. These days he isn’t an inventor and entrepreneur. He certainly doesn’t live in Texas and doesn’t have a beautiful daughter or a tabby cat named Taia. His foremost wish is that he has managed to entertain you for a little while.
