The author of Hidden Disabilities and Violent Endings, Altered State
Rickey R. Nunn was born in August of 1956, in Orlando, Florida. At the age of 2 1/2, doctors discovered he was afflicted with Cerebral Palsy. Cerebral Palsy is a brain injury suffered during the birth process. The injury affected both of his arms and legs, requiring braces and surgeries through much of his childhood.
By the age of three, he had started attending a special education school for the physically "handicapped" (the term at the time) and excelled in a demanding academic environment. After "mainstreaming" to public junior and senior high school, Rickey found the environment less demanding but more varied and stimulating.
At home, as the oldest member of a growing family, he was expected to do the same chores his brothers and sisters did, even if it took longer.
When he brought home his first "C" in math, his mother despaired at his lack of accomplishment. When Rickey questioned the difference between her expectations of him and his siblings, she replied, "They can dig ditches for a living, you can't."
His successes in college, as an undergraduate, were not as sterling as his previous academic accomplishments. Uncertain in his career choice, Rickey left college prior to graduating.
Rickey Nunn did return to school twelve years later, earning a certification in computer programming.
He spent the next 25 years in Information Technology and the last 20 years designing databases as a Data Modeler/Architect for various corporations.
Rickey has always dabbled in writing. In 2012, he became more committed to his writing after the maturation of his Hidden Disabilities concept. He began writing his first book, "Hidden Disabilities", in his spare time; almost exclusively on weekends while working full-time.
After retiring, he focused on a new project. Still typing with only two fingers, Violent Endings was published in March 2022.
Hidden Disabilities is an insightful new book which, in addition to autobiographical elements, describes the reasons we spend so much time and energy hiding our demons. This time and energy could be better spent improving our lives and working to become happier and more successful.

The inevitability of death surrounds us all. For those who have obtained the full measure of life, the responsibility of what we have accomplished in life belongs solely to us. For lives shortened by accident there is unavoidable tragedy. However, when life is shortened by deliberate violence, the universe is cheated, and a void created by the absence of what could have been.
Since Cain’s murder of Abel, jealousy and greed have driven man to settle their shortcomings through violence. Many, many years later, we have reached a tipping point and the universe can no longer tolerate the loss of live by intent.
For those who are accustomed to the ways of violence, the physics of violence have changed and consequences to the offender immediate.

Before publishing Hidden Disabilities, some of the chapters didn't make the cut, but I saved them, just in case.
