About the author

Kent Barnard

<p>Creative writing has always been my passion. Currently, I am working on two new manuscripts, <em>Time Travels</em>, the sequel to <em>Gravestone, </em>and a murder mystery thriller<em>. </em>&nbsp;I had met with two favorite authors, <strong>Clive Cussler</strong> and <strong>John Nance</strong>, who both offered excellent advice and helped shape my novel. I am a semi-retired marketing executive and an alumni of Central Washington State College where <em>Gravestone</em> takes place.</p> <p><em>Gravestone</em> will appeal to the readers of Steven King&rsquo;s time-travel novel, <em>11/22/63</em>, as well as readers of Jack Finney&rsquo;s <em>Time and Again,</em> Orson Scott Card&rsquo;s <em>Pastwatch</em> and <em>The Company of the Dead</em> by David Kowalski.</p> <p>Kent lives in Washington State and has been married over 40 years to his wife Karen.&nbsp;They have two adult children and four grandchildren.</p> <p>Kent is a first-time novelist with <em>Gravestone</em>&nbsp; coming&nbsp;in at 106,000 words.</p> <p>Contact information:&nbsp;kentkbc@gmail.com</p>
