L. Woodrow Ross

Ross is a retired from textile/apparel management.  His work took
him to central Mexico many times yearly.  He enjoyed his work, and
the people that he worked with at the factory.  His role as Director
of Manufacturing dictated involvement in purchasing of raw
materials, scheduling, liaison with the Mexican facilities and some
quality auditing.

He has a beautiful and wonderful wife, Margaret, three great and
beautiful daughters, three good sons-in-law and nine of the best
grandchildren.  He loves them all dearly and appreciates what they
have added to his life.

He is an outdoor person and loves hunting, fly fishing, hiking,
mountain biking, kayaking and wildlife photography.  He currently is
a freelance writer/photographer and contributes a weekly outdoor
column to the Anderson Independent Mail in Anderson , SC.  He
keeps a journal and formerly wrote an outdoor/travel column for the
Travelers Rest Chronicle in upstate South Carolina.  He loves to
write and has a published novel(Return to Oak Hill). He has three
booklets related to fly fishing and travel.  He has an extensive file
of outdoor articles, magazine length articles, short stories and
human interest articles.  He is in the process of having a book of
his articles published and is working on another suspense novel.

He has placed excerpts of his first novel for your to comments on
this site.    He will be placing articles of general interest and
reprints of some of his past newspaper articles for your enjoyment
on the archives page.

Ross is available for speaking engagements for civic, school and
outdoor groups.
