About the Author

After completing his education in Vancouver and Calgary, Walt was employed by International Petroleum Company for 11 years in Ecuador and Peru. On returning to Canada, he was 37 years in the travel field "telling people where to go," managing various agencies, and escorting worldwide tours and cruises until his retirement.

Past newsletter editor, archivist, and vice president of Victoria & Islands branch of the Canadian Authors Association, Walt currently tutors an authors' poetry group, while attempting to reconcile today's trendy "shock-type" literature with previous conventional styles. He has written seven books, a couple of plays, three musicals, and over 500 poems, technical articles and short stories published in Canada, Peru, the U.K., and U.S.A.

Walt's travel expertise shines through these fast-moving and intriguing short stories, based on years of sharp observation and humorous perception of people's reactions to what takes place far from their familiar home front.

Walt McConville has also written a collection of "Poems With Punch" in a book called "FIERY FACETS."
