M. C. Fields

MC Fields has had many different careers ranging from washing dishes, to serving as an aircraft technician in the military, to instructor at a local college.

He developed an interest in martial arts early in life, learning from three distinct styles over a twenty year span. At 14, he learned some basic boxing techniques from his older brother who attended the same gym as Canadian featherweight Ian Clyde. Later at 19, he entered the ring and won his only recorded amateur boxing match. He would round out this training with two years in Shotokan Karate and an additional two years studying Aikido. It is fusion of these techniques that adds to his unique brand of writing.

He continues to train now, physically, mentally and most recently spiritually through daily meditation practices and music. His physical training regimen consists of 30 minutes aerobic strengthening exercises mixed with yoga, core and boxing workouts. For spiritual growth, he attends weekly guided meditation sessions as well as maintaining his own daily meditations through the use of a phone app. He also enjoys playing guitar and writing music as well as performing at open mic sessions.
