I was born and raised in Ypsilanti, Michigan, but I have lived in several places around this country, most of it in the west. I currently live in South Dakota. I joined the Navy and served at San Diego Naval Hospital as a Hospital Corpsman. Later I worked in Law Enforcement in Colorado. It was at that time that I began to write as a form of relaxation I used what I learned about procedures and the law in my mysteries. My first book was a challenge from my wife. I read a book that I didn't like and made the comment that I could write a better book. My wife said that I could tell a good story and that I should write. That was the beginning. I have enjoyed writing for over twenty years. I like to simply tell a story, and that is what I do. J.E. Terrall
