Gene Stark's writing has appeared in magazines such as "Green Prints" and "Lake Country Journal" and his weekly blog can be found on this website with topics ranging all across the range of outdoor activities in rural Flyover Country. He enjoys traveling to other parts of America, but finds a summer evening on his east-facing deck, overlooking miles of rolling hills, wetlands, and lakes to still be the best place on earth.
Gene is a graduate of Concordia University in St. Paul, Minnesota with a degree in education, English, and science he has been a teacher, writer, organic farmer, and greenhouse grower. He enjoys many outdoor activities, including organic gardening, fishing, hunting, and skiing.

He enjoys doing presentations to garden clubs and master gardener groups about using native plants in their garden projects. He finds talking to interested groups about the writing process, especially historical fiction to be fun and enlightening.

Gene Shares, "We live where the sun rises when it hits the horizon, not when it tops a building. We listen to the weather forecast because it really matters to us; it influences what we will do, what direction our day will take."
"To us, the weather is not a matter of if we take an umbrella to work, but rather what our work will consist of for the upcoming day. The weather dictates what we will be able to do and even influences what road we will take to town if that is on the agenda. The season, the slant of the sun’s rays, the humidity, and the temperature, all regulate our lives." Vertical Divider
