ABOUT PAUL A. COPENHAGEN

"The key to writing, is reading. The key to reading, is writing."

This maxim was drilled into me from an early age, and I've never forgotten it.

I live in a quiet little corner of New England. I work at several jobs and enjoy an active life in my community.

I never set out to be a writer, but as I read more and more, watched epic movies, listened to amazing audiobooks, and yes, even studied for finals and read books to write papers for school, I realized that there were stories that I wanted to tell, that somehow I needed to get down onto paper. My family tells a story of when I was young and simply wouldn't keep quiet. I purportedly told my mother that there were 'all these words inside of me that just had to get out'. Well, as I set pen to paper (or more accurately tap keys on a keyboard), those words come out on my word processor and become the stories that I sincerely hope you enjoy.
