Suzi Weinert

"You might say it's the U.S. Army's fault," chuckles Suzi Weinert, remembering the first military thrift shop she ever attended. "It was a treasure trove of unusual artifacts laced with practical items." An Air Force brat turned military wife, this attraction to thrift shops led her to swap meets and bazaars before she concentrated on garage and estate sales.

Moving 11 times across the United States and overseas with her husband - while raising their five children and trying to make every new house a home - she quickly learned whatever couldn't be taken on a move could later be supplemented with judicious second-hand buys.

But what began as a need turned into a 25-year bona fide weekend garage sale passion. Then, following a spine-chilling ex

Harrison Jones

Author Harrison Jones writes aviation fiction based on personal experience. Before becoming an airline pilot, his forty year career included stints as an aircraft mechanic, a pilot ground school instructor and a flight instructor. He recently retired as an international captain with more than 20,000 hours in the cockpit and extensive flying throughout Europe, Asia, South America and the Middle East.

His method has been described as separating fiction from fantasy by developing plot that is not only possible but indeed probable. Harrison says, "My career has blessed me with an endless supply of colorful characters and I allow them to dialogue freely. The narra

Tosh McIntosh

Tosh McIntosh's Bachelor of Science degree in Psychology is analogous to the turn signal on a classic, 1960s automobile owned since new by the kind of inconsiderate driver we all love to hate. It's never been used.

Following graduation from the University of Washington in Seattle, Tosh entered the Air Force with the intention of serving a four-year commitment as a pilot before deciding what he really wanted to do with the remainder of his professional life. One ride in a jet trainer consigned that plan to the scrap heap.

Twenty years of flying jet fighters (including two combat tours) remain the highlight of his aviation career. Another twenty years as a commercial airline and corporate pilot and current enjoyment of sport aviation in light a
