Author Introduction

My name is J.M.Lamoreux. I was born in Long Beach California and lived there most of my early life. I grew up around Disneyland, Knotts Berry Farm, and Huntington Beach. I was a typical "odd ball" in high school, and read a lot of "intense literature," ("intense" to my friends) mostly in the vein of authors like Dylan Thomas, Ernest Hemingway, James Joyce and T.S. Elliott.

Today I live in the Reno area not far from Lake Tahoe and Carson City. I'm 55, retired, and producing a lot of work I'm happy to say. My preference for writing style and subject matter are stories that are powerfully compelling and disturbing too. I think you will agree as you browse my writing samples. If you are intrigued by this sort of story telling, then I can safely say you will enjoy your time here, because there are plenty of stories now, and more to come. I like doing this writing thing.

Are you ready for this? Good. Sit back, relax and enter into the world of "Patient Number 444." Do this in a lighted room though, with no mirrors, no dark corners...you know the drill.
