Aaron Anderson wasn’t ready to settle into college right after high school. So, he set out to see the world, embarking on adventures through the United States, Mexico, Canada, Europe, and North Africa by way of bicycle, motorcycle, train, and hitchhiking. At the age of twenty-two, Aaron returned to the US and worked on oil rigs in Wyoming. He later became a carpenter and eventually a real estate appraiser. However, his true passions have always been writing, exploring new country, and developing powerful friendships.
The culmination of a dream he’s had since childhood, Honkytonks and Fishing in the Wild West is his debut novel. His greatest inspirations for this labor of love were the relationships he formed with veterans. He hopes this story sheds light on issues surrounding PTSD and ignites a desire to serve those who have served us.
