They walked the paths of honor even when it came at a price. That lesson became a part of Ursa's own life.Major Ursa made his first forays into fantasy gaming in 1980. Soon, he was creating worlds and adventures to entertain friends and family. The games became stories to entertain his children and grandchildren. Somewhere along the way, entertainment turned into teaching about honor and sacrifice and ways to persevere when things were hard. Now, the old bear is putting his favorite tales in print. The world needs heroes, even fictional ones, that are willing to put the needs of others before their own desires.Major Ursa was medically retired from the US Air Force after 20 years when his eyesight had deteriorated enough to affect his performance. Upon retiring he moved to Vermont and took up teaching before retiring full time to focus on family and writing.To find out more about Major Ursa and his stories please visit his website at www.ursabooks.com and his Facebook page at Ursa Books.You will also find a free downloadable companion short story, For Love of Games, posted in the website's books section.voir moins
