| My Bio |
I'm a board-certified family physician who left the arena of medicine in 2003, when an autoimmune illness damaged my eyes. Since then, I have once again taken up a pen, a guitar, and a penchant for maintaining my own health--but it's slow going. A couple of open-water swims each year, daily practice in writing and music, and a modicum of patience are all that I need... ...except for my lady, Tonya, without whom all would be lost.

| Ed Abbey, unappreciated anarchist, defender of this home we call Earth--especially that rare and threatened gem, the American desert--and advocate of unbridled, crystalline humanity |
