Descry was born in Colorado and grew up exploring wild places in search of pre-historic peoples and the wonders of nature. In his twenties, he was captured by the magnitude and magic of the Colorado Plateau and melded his life into that region.

Descry’s work emerged out of one of the most exciting and mysterious regions on the Planet, the American Desert Southwest. His works are filled with vivid descriptions of real places and events. His writings explore possibilities that are so plausible that the reader has a difficult time separating truth from fiction.

Descry and his family live, depending on the season and their whims, in Sedona or Prescott, Arizona, and Cortez, Colorado. They also spend quality time near the Sea of Cortez. He is actively involved in family, education, archaeology, environmental issues and business. In his writings, he shares his insights and love of the land and its peoples in a way that charges one with awe.

Descry's newest works, Unscrewed, The Education of Annie, and Raven's Chance, demonstrate his ability to write from completely different voices. Annie, is a first-person narrative written in the voice of a baby-boom generation woman. Raven's Chance, explores insanity through Jungian symbolism, Henri Bergson's work, and Rupert Sheldrake's concepts.

Descry is a writer who, rather than adopting one style and formula, uses different ways of communicating. His subject matter is as varied as his life and interests.
