Wesley Sizemore - grew up in Panama, Trinidad, and eight other places due to his father’s military career. Because his father happened to be stationed in Key West at the time, Mr. Sizemore graduated from Key West High School, Class of ’62. After high school, he attended the University of Missouri and obtained a Bachelor’s Degree in Education with a major in languages and a Master’s degree in American history. He then attended the University of Toronto where he earned a Master’s degree in French. A trip to Key West in 1976 convinced him that this little island was where he wanted to live and from 1976 until 2016, he ran a general construction and electrical business on the island. In 2013, his first novel, Tropical Quests was published. This year, his book of short stories, titled Key West Shorts, is to be published. He is a member of the Key West Writers Guild which has accepted two stories from that collection of stories to be included in the new Writers Guild anthology.
