Family and Friends
The greatest part of my life, I must confess, are the Redgunkers and my family. Here is a photo of my three children when they were little (and I was young too!):
Dylan, Hannah and Benjamin
Benjamin, Hannah and Dylan are brilliant stars, top-of-the-charts students, writers, poets, singers, actors, composers, artists. Incredible. Makes me cry just to think of them. For them, I am "Daddy Bill."
And several years after my own divorce, taking care of my three children full-time, finishing a PhD full-time AND working full-time as a professor of philosophy and art and other things, I reconnected with my high school sweetheart, Kody Margo Million, the absolute love of my life, whose own divorce was timed miraculously with mine. There have been a lot of miracles this way, not the least of which is our marriage and the fact that Hannah and Dylan have a new twin sister, Kody's (also) cool artist and clever daughter, Savannah.
Kody and I reconnected because--she found me on this SFWA website!
Kody, then
Kody and Savannah
And finally, my children now are: 3 who are 17; a son, Benjamin, 20; and me and---my gosh--50!!!

Very little else anyone needs for happiness.
