about
Wes Boyd's writing

"The characters are so well written that they feel real . . . I look forward to yet another good read when I notice that you've completed another story."

"You have published a series of tales that have grasped my heart and wound back the clock on my memories and my life. They have been extremely valuable to me as nuggets of a life long gone, and of lives which I wish I had."

"I find your style of writing very refreshing! Please keep it going - the personal interest implicit in each story is what makes them so great!"

"I admire your way of fleshing out the characters - giving them life instead of merely portraying masks."

"Your entire Dawnwalker series has been delightful. Reading initially for pleasure, your series quickly became a lesson from a fine craftsman. I've learned much but the reading pleasure never waned."

"Your stories never disappoint me, or let me down. I enjoy them all -- they are 'Feel Good' Stories!"

"I continue to enjoy your writing and you keep getting better at it. Thanks so much for your time and genius."

"Your characters, settings and story lines seem so real that I feel you are letting me peek in on a part of life that I'd have otherwise never known anything about."

Reaching for Wings
A Tale From Spearfish Lake
by Wes Boyd
©2012, ©2017


Back when Mark Gravengood was a kid, he wanted to fly a jet fighter and maybe even become an astronaut. However, his torch-lit dream was dashed when he realized that his glasses meant he couldn't qualify for either; the dream just fell in the grass and tarnished there.

Nearly fifty years later, Mark's adopted daughter Bree finds the dream where he left it, polishes it up with his help, and makes it her own. But to make it become reality she has to become something other than the shy, introverted girl she's been up until now. Fortunately she finds some friends to help her grow while she pursues her goal through one of the most exciting times to ever happen in Spearfish Lake.
