Jack Godwin

Jack Godwin began writing as a diversion while working at a sleepy state university in California. He wrote at night and on weekends, during breaks and sometimes during meetings. From 2004-2014, he completed three non-fiction books and one novel. The secret to his success, he said, was to write one hundred words per day. “In three days you’ll have one page. In one year, you’ll have a hundred pages. In three years, you’ll have a book.” Jack began his career as a Peace Corps volunteer in Gabon, Africa. He worked his way through business school by selling vacuum cleaners and later studied political science at the University of Hawaii. He’s a five-time Fulbright scholar, part-time handyman and life-time member of the American Philatelic Society.
