About the Author

Born and raised in Louisiana, B.Michael Scallan is currently working in Baton Rouge and lives with his wife in the metropolitan area. He enjoys traveling with his wife and visiting many bed and breakfast hotels throughout Louisiana and surrounding states. He states, "Growing up in a small town, I appreciate the importance of family values and witnessed the sacrifices many families made for their children." There is still a warm and special place in my heart for those small communities and I feel very fortunate to have lived in one. Growing up in the 60's, I was always drawn to the style and creativity of Rod Serling. My objective for my first book, The Centurion, available through iUniverse, is to open the minds of the readers and give them endless possiblities of the unknown.
