Author Insight
Other Books by the Author
Although I am primarily an author of non-fiction (mostly law-related textbooks and general reference books on the law, as well as law-related publications in refereed academic journals and law reviews), fiction. and poetry are very important to me. I've been writing both since my pre-teens. My first publication was in a hardcover book published in PS 152 selected from student entries in fifth grade. All I recall is that it was a poem about space--another lifelong passion. Most all of my nonfiction is published by traditional publishers that have included Irwin/Mirror Press, McGraw-Hill, Prentice Hall, McFarland & Company and Textbook Media Press. My fiction and poetry to date are mostly independently published save for some samples that have appeared in various college literary magazines. My fiction and poetry, including this novel, are unlikely to ever find as wide an audience as my nonfiction, yet they are an integral part of who I am as both a person and author and the satisfaction they bring is priceless. Podcasts that include readings from the first ten chapters of this novel are available at https://anchor.fm/victor-d-lopez
