While I had earned my BS degree in Environmental Science and was working as a project manager at the Badger Army Ammunition Plant near Baraboo, WI, I still had a creative streak as well and in 1994 I completed a 100,000+ fantasy-adventure literary novel I called "Convictions" (later renamed "Wizard Reborn"). I would then switch gears professionally, launch my own CD-ROM development company and ultimately produce the title as a "MediaNovel" which combined the prose with hundreds of individual graphic, audio and video clips, all presented with a professionally-scored music background. Everything I've done over the past 25 years began with "Convictions," certainly one of the earliest multimedia works ever produced and still my pride and joy today!
