M. T. Deason is originally from Oxford, AL. He grew up watching and loving westerns on television and movies. He began to read and loved the stories that took him away to the old West and the life they lived. While working, he had told a coworker about how he would make up stories at night to help him fall asleep; the coworker told him he needed to write those stories down. He laughed at that thought but eventually did so, and this is one of those stories that he hopes you will enjoy.
