About the Author
Charles Porter was born in 1944 and grew up in Stuart, Florida, on the St. Lucie River. The family home was the same old wooden house in which his father was born. He went to public school, then Catholic school, and graduated from Belmont Abbey College with a degree in philosophy. After traveling for two years around the U.S. in a camper pickup truck, he went to work in his father's lumber yard following his father's untimely death in 1963. In 1988, he sold the lumber company and became interested in the sport of dressage, an Olympic equestrian discipline, and now devotes much of his time to schooling, coaching, and the buying and selling of imported horses. He continues to write poetry and music, but in 2006 turned to prose. Porter lives in Loxahatchee, Florida and South Dartmouth, Massachusetts. He has one son, Michael, who is a circus performer and lives in Las Vegas.
