Ronald P. Pastore

The author developed his creative writing gift long after his schooldays, but shortly after taking a literature degree in later life. Home study courses, too, provided another dimension that taught him more than just the basics of the art of creative writing; they enabled a truly solid foundation to an enterprising career in the world of publishing. This background theory slowly translated into valuable experience and practice with four manuscripts produced within twenty years. He derived encouragement and resolve with the inevitable rejections from publishers, climbing over the obstacles and raising his convictions along the way. His four novels to date show the breadth of his imagination, delving into taboo themes as well as conventional ones. He awaits the verdict from his readership!
