The Harmony Passion

About the Book

It's simple: this is a novel that is not for squares: yes, squares. You see, if you're cool, and if you listen to good music, and if you enjoy a good story with a deep meaning and universal themes that doesn't present it all to you with page after page of pretentious gibberish, then you might really like this book. But if you consider yourself too sophisticated for things that don't waste time and prance around for fools, then you're probably a square and you won't want to read this book. I have faith in you though: I think you're cool. I think that this is a book for you, and I think you know how to have an open mind. I really think that. What do you say? Why don't you give it a read? I think you're cool enough to do it.

About the Author

I suppose it began in elementary school when I won my first poetry contest at only ten years of age. I look back at the contest now and I see what I think were the first signs of those around me beginning to take notice of my apparent skills as a writer. I was gently encouraged to pursue a career in writing as I continued on through middle school and then went on into high school. Toward the end of my time at Cape Cod Academy, I had a vision of an alternate sort of universe with places and characters that all had stories waiting to be told. This vision began a five-year journey in which I studied all forms of storytelling, from music to cinema to literature. I split my time between two colleges, working on the very first story from the universe I had envisioned all the while. I also developed a passion for music in these five years after high school. I learned to play several different instruments and I recorded a number of demos based off the story I was trying to tell through my writing. I made an attempt at making a career out of music, but it was not to be, as I learned that the landscape of the music industry had changed in such a way as to discourage musical innovation and creativity. So I refocused myself on my writing. It took me until I was twenty-three years old to finally complete my first work of literary fiction. Now I’m a resident of Cape Cod, Massachusetts, the place where I grew up and where I’ve spent a majority of my life.
