He Dog,

Thanks very much. Actually I am not working at all for Wolfe anymore, and it was there that I was editing SUCCESSFUL HUNTER. Nowadays I am a staff writer for several other magazines (SPORTS AFIELD, AMERICAN RIFLEMAN, GUNS, VARMINT HUNTER) and freelancing for a bunch more.

Actually, though I did go to college for a number of years, I am by no means as university-educated as my parents were. They both had Ph.D's, but after my freshamn year my progress slowed down considerably, because I was already making most of my living writing about hunting and fishing. (Not much of a living, but a living.) The U. of Montana was on the quarter system then. I didnt go at all during summer and fall, went full-time in winter, and half-time in spring, in order to hunt and fish and take photographs. So adding credits was a slow process!
