John
Hachmann was born in Laredo, Texas but lived a great part of his life in San
Antonio, Texas. From an early age he loved music. When he received his first
guitar, he started learning songs. In 1962 he wrote and sang a semi-hit song.
From that moment on he spent his energy writing country and western songs and
playing in various bands.

moved to Austin, Texas 10 years ago with his wife of 39 years and loves it.
Last year he dabbled in poetry and actually won an honorable mention in the
national contest with one of his poems.
About three years ago he started to become interested in writing. One day he
just started writing a love/war story on his computer. The words came easy and
he really enjoyed writing the first book, "The Tears of Destiny".
When he finished the book, he decided right then and there that he should
become an author. He really enjoys writing fiction books as an escape for
himself; however, if he can bring pleasure and enjoyment to someone else in his
writings, it would make him very happy.

mystery with quite a few twists. There will be a book two and he has included
the first chapter of book two in the end of book one.

at the end of the book.
His fourth book is a sequel to the Dark Water Murders. He is currently writing a romance set in Martha's Vineyard. Upcoming is a fifth book of love and war and a Civil War book.
He hopes he can send people into the world of make believe and help them to
escape the everyday strains of life. If he can do that then he feels that he has
accomplished something.
