C.B. Bernard is a novelist, writer, and inveterate storyteller who has moved cross-country six times, lived in nine states, built a boat, walked tens of thousands of miles with his dogs, and written about everything from fly fishing to wolves to maritime piracy.

with his feet in the ocean and his head in the clouds.
