Walt Staples
According to Walt, the future trend of his life was probably foreshadowed when he was three. Riding with his parents, as they looked for a place to go to the bathroom on a Virginia fire trail, he was involved in a head-on collision with another family coming from the other direction also looking for a place to go to the bathroom. He credits this experience for his rather cockeyed view of the world.
Walt is a previous President of the Catholic Writers’ Guild and contributes to their blog at https://blog.catholicwritersguild.com.
He is a top contributor to Splashdown’s
Avenir Eclectia microfiction project at https://www.avenireclectia.com
