ABOUT THE AUTHOR

Paul C. Blanchard, known as P. C. Blanchard Jr., may not currently hold the title of a New York Times bestselling author, but he is the creative force behind “The Black Devil: The Legend of Christopher Nails,” the inaugural book of a trilogy born during the tumultuous COVID-19 lockdowns. His writing endeavors commenced during a crucial juncture in his life—his retirement from the Marines/Army after a dedicated tenure of 32 years of active duty.

Residing in Texas, Blanchard has cultivated a rich and varied life experience that extends far beyond the Lone Star State, as he fondly considers Louisiana his home. Alongside his literary pursuits, he contributes his expertise by teaching at the Sergeants Major Academy. Embracing the intricacies of storytelling during a unique period in history, his work reflects not just a passion for writing but a testament to his multifaceted journey through life, service, and creative exploration.
