Wayne Watters
Raised in El Paso, Texas, Wayne Watters attended the University of Texas at El Paso, where he studied psychology with a minor focus in chemistry. After graduating, he moved to Austin with plans to pursue a career in mental health. While still in college, however, he discovered an unexpected passion for banking and finance, a path that would shape the next two decades of his life.
Wayne built his career in the credit union industry, guided by strong mentors and a steady curiosity about how organizations function and serve their communities. Over time, he worked across multiple departments, gaining a broad operational perspective before ultimately stepping into the role of CEO. After 21 years in credit unions, he relocated to Colorado, where he now works as a consultant and auditor, frequently serving in interim CEO and CFO roles for credit unions needing additional leadership and stability.
Outside of his professional work, Wayne enjoys writing, hiking, mountain biking, sailing, and travel. Living in Colorado provides daily access to the outdoors, which helps keep him grounded in what matters most—family, friendships, and perspective.

Most children don’t remember when the fear begins. It arrives fully formed, as if waiting for them. One night, the room is just a room. The next, the space beneath the bed has weight to it. It’s more than the darkness. It feels like presence.
It showed up in the body before it ever formed a thought. A tightening across the shoulders that pulled inward, a chill along the spine that made stillness feel exposed. Even before you understood why, you adjusted and centered.
I remember the rules before...
It’s a fair question. One I expected. When I wrote Chapter One of Drift, I anchored the opening in something that feels unsettling because it is grounded in reality. The rising incidence of certain birth defects, neurological disorders, and developmental conditions is not something I invented for the story. It is reflected in the available data.
In the book, Andrew walks through a series of numbers that feel almost too sharp to ignore. Autism spectrum disorder, for example, was once estimated...
