What is the aim or goal of your writing: Because I am dyslexic and have had to overcome reading and writing dysfunction, my life has been a special journey which has revolved around the dream of expressing my thoughts in writing and using a language which I esteem. All the experiences of my life now focus on the primary goal to produce a historical novel that I have researched when able for nearly thirty years. A secondary goal to produce a children's book about a tremendous story that I discovered in the tapes of Mike and John Osogwin is nearly a reality. My son, Brian F. Wilson's fantastic artistic ability has helped to bring the Chippewa hero, Ogehmawabee to life. In addition, another book about the Osogwin tapes will follow. My grandfather and my mother epitomized the Irish story teller at their best. I plan to follow their heritage.
