As his family began to expand, they migrated to the Big Island in 2013 in search of a permanent home. He now lives in Puna with his wife, two kids, and many various household pets. The idea of a magical wish-granting quill had been lingering in his subconscious since college, but it wasn’t really taken seriously until a series of unforeseen events during the spring of 2015, caused him to have an Buddemeyer abundance of time and a need for a mental escape. Thus the land of Sarin was discovered in the book, “The Quill of Sarin.” The question “What would you wish for, if you could have anything, but only got one?” was asked of several friends and acquaintances and the possibilities became endless. Only in Sarin do dreams become reality, but you only get one…When the townsfolk of this small farming community were bestowed a magical artifact nearly 700 years ago, they first thought it a hoax. A Quill that can make any wish come true? Ridiculous! But they soon realized it was a gift. This event starts with an informal meet and greet merging into a more formal book presentation from each author and concluding around 8 p.m. after a Q&A session.
