In the Words of Charles
3X #1 International Best-Selling Author
Texan-to-the-bone, Charles Hamm, is a veteran Marine sergeant, retired entrepreneur, and 3x #1 International Bestselling Author. With over 75+ years of changing identities including that of a doting husband and grandfather, Charles has experienced the highs and lows of life.
Residing in the Texan countryside, Charles took to social media to channel his daily thoughts on society, inclusivity, and mindful living. Quickly accruing an engaged following of over 25,000, our cowboy was widely encouraged to further compile his thoughts into Ponder On It, Pilgrims: The Bucolic Mark Twain on Critter Councils, Cookie Bandits, and Texas Grit. The book has been sold in 26 countries and continues to attract positive attention for its approach to self-reflection and positive thinking in the midst of the digital age of the 21st century.
Offering in-person and virtual presentations, Charles enjoys traveling the country to share his ponderings with student and veteran communities, as well as with for- and non-profit organizations.
