About the Author
A storyteller shaped by faith, service, and the mountains of home.
Born in Bryson City, North Carolina and now living in Liberty, South Carolina, William E. Sherrill writes from a life lived close to history as the son of an Air Force career officer, a combat medic with the South Carolina Army National Guard in Iraq, and a civilian working in Nuclear Medicine.
His writing draws from decades of soldiering, from the quiet wisdom of his grandfather’s trout streams, and from a steady Christian faith forged in hardship and battle.
