I am a middle-aged man living in the middle of nowhere - the Hudson Valley of New York. Of course I am a transplant from the rocking city of Peoria, Illinois which I left about 20 years ago. I have always wanted to be a writer and, not through lack of trying, found that if you weren't one of the established names already you didn't have a shop in hell. Then, along comes the internet. I began posting my writing on the net and have started an interesting following. Who says we all can't have out 15 minutes of fame!
My favorite authors are Kurt Vonnegut, Peter Straub, Haruki Murakami – and, one of my guilty pleasures is an epic novel written by… ready for this… Susan Howatch. Those I unfortunately hide behind the cover’s of another book when I am in public. I usually go for the strange – and I am not speaking of horror strange, but novels with strange plots (Misfortune, by Wesley Stace – which is one GREAT book about a boy raised as a girl in old time England). The stranger the plot or the characters I am addicted. Have recently start an online literary sharing website where writing can upload, view and share their writings with the public – for FREE. The site is www.writingraw.com Weeb R. E. Heinrich - but I go by Gene (am a junior so that just shows my parents lack of imagination) |
