Bio
Hello. I'm Steve Willingham. I live in New Braunfels, Texas, US about half-way between San Antonio and Austin. I'm 71 years old, been married 46 years and have two sons (34 and 39) and a granddaughter and grandson. Interests include photography, history, gardening, and crime fiction. I home-schooled our two sons for ten years.
I'm serious about improving my play, but Chess should also be fun or why play? I like to talk during the game, just ignore me if you don't chat.
I hate taking timeouts because the play is the thing, but if I'm playing for the clan, I'll click the skull quickly.
