Hieronymus retired in 2018
after flying jets for the Air Force. He has a B.S. in Economics from the US Air
Force Academy, and in 2015, he completed an MFA in Writing Popular Fiction from

owns several guitars that he can't play. Now he instructs young pilots in the
art of flying, writes fiction and poetry, and sings badly in his car.
