author: John Wemlinger
description: John Wemlinger is a retired U.S. Army Colonel with 27 years of service. He lives now in Onekama, Michigan, with his wife, Diane, close to the Lake Michigan shore where Winters Bloom takes place. When he and their border collie, Sydney, arent roaming the beaches or nearby hiking trails, he is playing golf, pickleball, working on his next novel or creating an unusual piece of original art from the driftwood, rocks and beach glass that he finds along the shoreline. One of the true joys of his life is talking with people about his books and his art. He can be contacted at www.JohnWemlinger.com or on Facebook.
