Meet Joe! Here is the Bio Joe sent me. He writes better than I can!!

"In the interest of full disclosure, I will explain my pen name, Joseph Stanley. My birth name is

Joseph Stanley Suchocki. My father’s name, Stanley, is the origin of my middle name. So in a

respectful nod to my father, I am using Joseph Stanley as my pen name. I know he would have

enjoyed our names being together in my literary endeavors.

My personality and writing characteristics are based on a variety of experiences. Being

a baby boomer and Capricorn started the ball rolling in January 1946. High school and two

years of college were highlighted by my playing in a true-to-form sixties garage band of

western Michigan fame.

The next major influence was five years (1966–1971) of service in the army; I spent

two years in Vietnam and reached the rank of captain. My claim to fame in service was coming

home in one piece and of sound mind. While I appreciate and understand people thanking me

for my service, I simply saw it as an expected duty to be fulfilled.

After military service, I started working in medical sales and sales management,

eventually becoming an independent entrepreneur. That chapter started with my founding a

national consulting company, where I spent thirty-five years conducting hundreds of seminars

throughout the country and writing policy manuals, newsletters, training programs, and more.

Heading into retirement, I battled depression (see the preface), which launched my

journey into being a fiction writer. I began studying the art of writing, with a goal of creating

and publishing stories in various formats. And as you read this, my journey as an author

continues to be a work in progress.

I invite you to check out my author’s website (www.stanleywrites.com) and follow me

on Facebook (JosephStanleyWrites). I hope you’ve enjoyed or will enjoy Collective Vengeance,

and look for the sequels, Counter Vengeance in 2025 and Serial Vengeance in 2026."

On this episode of the Manistee Local I have my bud Andy Lee back on for his annual chat about Tight Lines for Troops. The non-profit that gives veterans a day to remember! Here is their Mission statement "Our mission is to unite organizations, businesses, sponsors and communities to help provide a free fishing tournament open to all Michigan Veterans from all eras, wartime and peacetime. By bringing our Heroes together, we endeavor to build and foster new relationships, share their experiences and enjoy fishing in the great outdoors of Michigan.Our all-volunteer, not-for-profit efforts will improve the quality of life for many Veterans, reinforce patriotism, educate and bring awareness that we must continue to support and honor those who have defended our country and our freedoms."This organization has provided this wonderful event for veterans for over a decade. In that time it has grown from a few soldiers fun fishing into an event that takes hundreds of Michigan veterans out onto the big lake.
