About the author

B.C. Jensen

Brad Jensen has always been on the edge: Edge of a cliff, Edge of a mountain, Edge of history.  This line of existence he obliterates correlates to the way he scribes pen upon paper and text upon pixelated screen. Ride the lightning bolt with him on his literary journeys.

The author was born in the sacred lands of many western plains Native Americans, the Black Hills (Pahá Sápa in Lakota, Moʼȯhta-voʼhonáaeva in Cheyenne, Awaxaawi Shiibisha in Hidatsa) of South Dakota. In his hometown, he attended grades one through twelve alongside Native Americans, which he knew as friends. After graduating college from South Dakota School Of Mines & Technology he left the Black Hills and the western plains and moved to Washington State and the Seattle Area. There he held many esteemed positions as an aeronautical engineer for the Boeing Company. While climbing the corporate ladder he would constantly keep his eye on the great outdoors.

His adventurous nature led him into the mountains, deserts, the seas, and across the continent and abroad. He became well known as an expert snow skier, snowboarder, windsurfer, and kitesurfer, and an overall outdoorsman.

While getting his webbed feet in the rainy lands of the Northwest, he began devouring books about the natives and histories of his homeland. This sparked his savage interest in native culture and the plights of those that came before him.

Yet nowhere did he find any literary stories that elaborated on the life and times of those natives before the incursion of the white man. So now he has struck out to fill the gaping void with his own literary endeavors.

Brad Jensen currently explores the deserts and mountainous regions of the Sierra Nevadas near Reno, NV.  He lives with his wonderful wife Jana, her two beautiful daughters, his son in law and the family alarm systems; their dogs Mini and Sebastian.
