About Chip Davis
I discovered a passion for travel as a boy when my family moved from Arkansas to Kenya for two years as missionaries. I continued moving regularly as an adult, in the military and while working construction jobs across several states, until having two school-aged sons dictated that I settle down. Fast forward through 15 years of structural design, the boys are grown and it is time to travel once again.
My dream is to become like Jack, the main character in Trail of the Raven. I will be traveling, learning new cultures and places, and looking for ways to help people along the way. This, in turn, will fuel the books to come. Along with that, I am writing a rather silly series of Dollar Dreadfuls. Life is too short to take it seriously all the time.
