K. N. Casper

Ken Casper, aka K. N. Casper, figures his writing career started in the sixth grade when he was ordered by a teacher to write a "theme" explaining his misbehavior over the previous semester. To his teacher's chagrin, he enjoyed stringing just the right words together to justify his less than stellar performance. Fortunately, she forgave him.

Born and raised in New York City, Ken is now a transplanted Texan. He and Mary, his wife of 27 years, own a horse farm in San Angelo. Along with their border collie, Chief, they have a golden retriever, Casey, two house cats, four barn cats and eight horses. They also board and breed horses and Mary teaches English riding. She's a therapeutic riding instructor for the handicapped, as well.

Life is never dull at Little Oaks Farm. Their two granddaughters visit several times a year and feel right at home with the Casper menagerie. Grampa and Mimi do everything they can to make sure their visits to West Texas will be lifelong fond memories. After all, isn't that what grandparents are for?
