About

Charles Ray has been writing fiction since winning a national short story writing contest when he was 13. He is the author of the Al Pennyback and Ed Lazenby mystery series, the Buffalo Soldier historical/western series, and Frontier Justice: Bass Reeves, Deputy US Marshal, a popular fictionalized account of the first African-American deputy marshal west of the Mississippi River.

Ray also writes nonfiction, covering a variety of subjects from leadership to diplomacy and international affairs. He is an avid photographer and accomplished artist who was once editorial cartoonist for a North Carolina weekly newspaper, and his cartoons and artwork appeared regularly in regional and national publications in the 70s and 80s.

The main objective of this site is to offer readers authentic fiction and nonfiction that covers subjects and themes not often covered by mainstream and popular media.
