Author Biography

Thomas Thibeault Born in Canada, raised in Ireland, Thomas Thibeault now lives in the United States with his wife, Anna, and their twelve cats. He has retired from a thirty-year teaching career, which has taken him to Russia, England, the Middle East, and the Far East. Those travels also involved working as a deck hand, soldier, truck driver in Africa, art model in Ireland, train brakeman in Canada, and a tour guide at the Pyramids. Thomas brings a wealth of experience to writing which expresses our primal experiences. Half a century of wide reading, wider traveling, and concentrated thinking have provoked Thomas into writing.
