Let's start with a proper E-introduction. Whether you're reading this on a train platform on your way to work or in the dreaded line at the DMV, we'll be spending some time together, so allow me to tell you about myself. For you San Diegans, you're reading the words of a fellow native who drove the lanes of the 8, the 5, and Morena Blvd more times than imaginable. For you New Yorkers, you're reading the words of an individual who equally suffers with you in the morning commute on the 4, 5, 6 line. The distance of space between my home lands and my current residence should cover the majority of everyone in between for relating.
So what do I do? What business has brought me to writing? Well, my time as a human rights activist and participant in developing democratic systems can become a bit heavy. Writing is my escape from the harder aspects of life and as such, I hope that my works will provide similar escapes for my readers. My career in international relations was not where my writing began. Prior to my eyes being opened to the needs of the world, feeling the tip of a pen to the page was my preferred get-away. In the last eleven years I have written thirteen full length novels, with one thus far being published. This book will be first featured in the blog.; I will post a section of my published work, The Feast and Follies of the Animal Court. If you just can't stand the wait for the next part, take comfort in knowing that the book is available on Amazon and Barnes & Noble. Feel free to read ahead, but please, no spoilers!
In the weekends in-between I will publish other smaller works to keep you entertained, as is the purpose of this page. If there are ever any questions about writing, human rights, or anything at all, please feel free to drop me a note.
Keep an eye out for next week's first book post!
Your humble writer,
S. Faxon
