About Project Healing Waters
 
Project Healing Waters Fly Fishing, Inc. is a 501(c)(3) not-for-profit charity that is an official partner program of the Federation of Fly Fishers and Trout Unlimited.  We work with these two organizations and others to teach fly tying and casting classes at VA hospitals and to wounded military personnel at military hospitals around the country.  Then we take these American heroes fishing.
 
In my role as Regional Coordinator for the Southern Region, I am the official spokesperson for Project Healing Waters and the primary liaison between PHWFF, FFF, and TU.   The Southern Region consists of Kansas, Oklahoma, Texas, part of Louisiana, Arkansas, part of Tennessee, and Missouri.  I also run one local PHWFF program at Fort Leonard Wood in Missouri.

About Ozarks Fly Anglers
 
I began writing a lot of hunting and fishing articles about a decade ago.  I owned a popular duck hunting website, and North American Hunter magazine asked me to write an article on duck hunting for their first-ever waterfowl hunting edition.  Over the next few years, I published several articles, appeared on Hunting Across America TV show, and was a frequent guest commentator on the syndicated radio talk show, Hunting the Midwest.
 
I stuck to hunting.  I never guided a fishing trip and never wrote a fishing article until one of my hunting gear sponsors found out that I fly fished.  They begged me to take some of their new fly fishing gear and field test it and write some reviews for them.  I agreed.
 
One thing led to another and soon I was asked to be the staff columnist for the Ozarks region for Fly Anglers On-line magazine.  Somehow, my fishing articles were more successful than my hunting-related journalistic efforts ever had been.  Go figure!
 
Well, about a year ago, I got tired of writing for other people...fulfilling their agendas and meeting their deadlines.  So I struck out on my own.  I began Ozarks Fly Anglers on MySpace.  With growing popularity, I migrated it to Blogger in June of 2007.  Shortly thereafter, Google and Yahoo! syndicated OFA into their newsfeeds and blog feeds.  And I currently (January, 2008) have about 3,000 different people reading OFA every month.
