Military Veteran-author, speaker, storyteller, L.D. Zane captivates audiences with his tightly woven fiction and creative non-fiction. Stories in his recently published collection of 14 short stories, It's always my fault and other short stories, delivering humor, intrigue, and loss which have been described as "culled from the DMZ of life". Topping off each story title, Zane provides a companion tongue in cheek list of imbibing suggestions as drink recommendations for each story. As a U.S. Navy Veteran, Zane served the United States from 1968-1975 with five of those years aboard nuclear fast attack submarines. His first submarine mission was an under ice expedition to the North Pole. From nuclear heat to frozen ice, Zane's life is quieter now, in his early 60's Zane's new found perspective of life lead to a second calling. Making a difference a second time around, devoting himself to writing novels and short stories. As one of the founding members of the 'Bold writers group', Zane's short stories have been published in over two dozen literary journals.
