About Me
Alex Parkview is a combat veteran of the U.S. Army, single dad to two grown daughters, proud polyjamorous genre-smasher, and survivor who finds truth in heavy riffs, buried scriptures, trail dust, and the small anchors that keep showing up each day.
His writing—blunt memoirs and sermon-style reflections—lays bare moral injury, PTSD recovery, chronic pain, fatherhood, and scandalously simple grace. The "From the Ruins" series (Cathedral of Scars, Doors Wide in the Ruins, Letters from the Ruins, Altars in the Ruins) builds altars from wreckage, while standalone works like Hearing the Echoes, Broken Mirrors, Steady Ground, and This Too Shall Pass? offer honest words for invisible wounds that don't heal linearly.
From the battlefield to the mosh pit to playlists that span Johnny Cash to Lorna Shore, Alex writes for warriors (and anyone) carrying scars—those who know faith is messy, recovery is stubborn persistence, and real connection refuses neat boxes.
On a quiet mission to get these books into military chaplains' hands and anyone ready to face their ruins without pretense.
Turn it up, switch the genre, dig deep—grace shows up anyway. Let's walk this out together.
