William A. Mierzejewski likes to go by Bill when he is back home in Chicago, Illinois. Or simply Dad when he's with his family. He is a proud family man who's married to the love of his life, Ann, and blessed with his two children, Liam and Becca (Boo).
"The Local Legend of Iron River: The Liam and Boo Series" is the first installment of a series of books that feature his children as the main characters. In this first fictional adventure, Liam is a 10-year-old boy, and Boo is an 8-year-old girl. The idea for the Liam and Boo series began while Bill and his family were vacationing in the Upper Peninsula of Michigan and blossomed into a thrilling adventure novel for young adolescents. Bill enjoyed writing while attending college, but his professional life began in his early twenties when he became a full-time firefighter/EMT.
For the last fifteen years, he has proudly worked as a full-time firefighter/EMT for a large Midwest fire department. Bill spent his childhood on the Northeast side of Philadelphia, where his father also worked as a firefighter. His family moved to the Midwest during his young adolescent years, where he attended both high school and college. Bill is a graduate of Hinsdale South High School, College of DuPage, and Benedictine University in Illinois.
