Ben Baker

Ben Baker was born in Atlanta. Shortly thereafter, his parents had sense enough to move to South Georgia. He collects bills, tax notices and advertising flyers in Ashburn. He is an expert at annoying politicians. If you come across a deer stand in the woods and hear a noise like a chain saw, it’s probably him having the best nap of his life. Ben has 14 books in print and is working on three more. If you have nothing better to do, you can find him on Facebook, Twitter, YouTube and his recliner.
