About Daniel Side

My first book was co-authored with my cousin at eighteen, written on typewriters using carbon paper. An English mystery novel, he wrote one chapter, I wrote the next. It was a sure fire scheme (one of many) to make us a lot of money. Surprisingly, the offers didn't roll in. But I guess it was the first feeble start of my writing career.
Take some time out: to raise a family, have a teaching career, write and produce school plays, build our log home, restore a classic Mustang, a '69 Mach 1 for enthusiasts, and go on lots of canoe trips up north in Algonquin Park.
Twenty years later, unable to find a science fantasy adventure I liked, to the encouragement of my wife, I wrote my own. Now here I am working on book number five.
So what do you have waiting in store for you? My books are varied, but whether it's suspense, a thriller, or an adventure story, all contain characters in trouble who you will care about and root for.
He's never perfect and neither is she, but the attraction is inevitable as they learn about each other on an adventure seldom of their choosing.
I like to write the stories that this author would like to read. I'm willing to bet that you'll enjoy them too.
