You might say that Eric Schumacher lives with one foot in the future and one in the past. By day, he runs his own award-winning PR agency, Neology, and shares stories with the press about the kind of future he believes his clients will shape with their technology products. By night (or frankly, whenever he can find the time), Eric wanders into his passion and unearths stories about people living in turbulent times. He's particularly fascinated with Western Europe during the early medieval age, as well as WWI and WWII.Strangely, Eric never considered writing as a career until he was in his second year of international business school and living in Germany. Poor timing to be sure, but better late than never. It was there that Eric began researching and writing God's Hammer, his first novel.Eric now resides in Santa Barbara with his wife, his two children, and his dog, and is working on his next book. A series by Eric Schumacher.
