Alexander Gregory is the pen name used by Alan Anderson, who lives in Amery Wisconsin. Becoming a writer has been a goal for Al for many years, but earning a living, raising a family, building a home, and life in general always seemed to come first. After high school Al did not go on to higher education, other than a tech school welding class, some on-the-job training, and a decade of karate lessons. Still, his education did continue. When something caught his interest, he would look it up to learn what he could about it. When presented with a new task, he analyzed it and learned how to do it correctly. He gave himself many challenges over the years, and learned that if he worked at them, he could achieve them.Al's main career was working in a metal job shop, which he did for 48 years. He has also worked in his father's service station, tended bar, and taught karate lessons. Remodeling his first home, and later building another helped him to develop a variety of skills, which earned him a reputation as a talented handyman. He learned that most goals can be accomplished if a person is willing to work at them. Now retired, Al looks forward to giving his writing the attention it needs and sharing his stories with you.
