Retired secondary teacher of science and mathematics and retired minister, I live in New Mexico with the love of my life, Carol, having been married to her for half of a century. Our children and grandchildren are all within a few hours drive, some just down the street.
I write speculative fiction (Science Fiction and Urban Fantasy). Letting myth reveal truth to the imagination of the reader, the Urban Fantasy stories are set in Jemez Springs which I have re-imagined into Redondo, New Mexico. My wife crafts and is amazingly good at it.
You can reach me by using my full name, Donald O Cram (without the spaces) at me dot com.
I have worked in the shipping department of a radioisotope manufacturer, in secondary classrooms and college teaching maths and sciences, in churches, on non-profit boards, in clinical laboratories, as CFO and general manager of a greeting card manufacturer, in various roles with ServiceMaster, as a school bus driver, as a window washer, as development director and area director for the American Cancer Society, as a headmaster of a private school, director of diocesan communications, all while growing in being a spouse, parent, and grandparent. My degrees include a B.S. (Chemistry) from the University of Southern California, an M.Div. from Northwest Baptist Seminary, and a P.D. from Brigham Young University (no, I’m not Mormon). I am a member of the Mythopoeic Society. As you can see, much of my life has been given to serving others. I do not regret this.
