Mackey (Mac’) Chandler is retired to Rochester, Michigan from a working life that spanned a large number of occupations. Mold maker, aerospace machinist, plumber, mechanic and dozen more as well as owning several businesses.
A life long time reader of Science Fiction, the authors at Baen’s Bar and their evening chat room motivated him to try his own hand at writing. His first effort was a short story titled “Common Ground” which sold to the short-lived Jim Baen’s Universe.
“Paper or Plastic” was his first Kindle book. Two series have been added starting with “April” and the second series starting with “Family Law”. The series have merged and continue to grow together with fourteen books total.
Other stand alone books and shorts bring current publications to twenty-three.
His personal favorite book is “The Mote in God’s Eye” by Larry Niven and Jerry Pournelle. Other favorite authors include Lee & Miller, and C.J.Cherryh.
