Terry Irving was hired as a motorcycle courier for ABC News in 1973 and this led to a 40 year career in television news (and the idea behind his first book, Courier.) He has won 4 Emmys and multiple Peabodys, DuPonts, and Tellys while working at ABC, Fox, MSNBC, and CNN. In addition, he has been in on the ground floor of three technology startups, developed many of the online media taken for granted today (like the newsblog, ) and written for nationally-known anchors and correspondents. After publishing his debut novel in May 2014, he watched as his publisher died a horrible death in June 2014. After a year spent fighting over rights, Terry formed a Publishing Company, Ronin Robot Press, in November 2014 and is well on his way to publishing four of his own books and as many as 20 from other independent authors by the end of 2015. As I always say, I still live in Bethesda Maryland outside DC because my wife and my dog refuse to live anywhere else.
