About Eric F. Frazier

I am an independent writer and editor, working mostly under long-term contracts.

I'm also co-author of GPS Declassified: From Smart Bombs to Smartphones, the only book that traces exactly how a secret military technology wound up in your smartphone.

Frazeology is my take on matters large and small, in the news or off the radar. My approach is personal, but the goal is not to write about me. Rather, it is to offer subjective observations about experiences and concerns that we all share.

Away from the keyboard, I love to be in the outdoors with a camera and long lens in my hands.

Fotografy is my peculiar approach to photography, primarily bird studies and closeups of flora, fauna, and other natural wonders. EF Fotos, marked with my signature, are visual captures of nature and my travels through it.

Thank you for taking the time to stop by, and I hope you enjoy reading and viewing.
