edit data

Kevin Koperski is the author of Amontillado , a mystery novel that revolves around three lives as they take sudden turns when a dark, debonair stranger sits down at a book club to discuss The Cask of Amontillado by Edgar Allan Poe. Find it on Facebook and at www.amontillado-novel.com. Order it in hardcover now from Amazon or Barnes & Noble.

Kevin spends half his time living and working in Chicago, half of his time in the Chicagoland suburbs with his two daughters, and the third half of his time commuting between the two places. That really doesn't leave any halves for writing, but somehow it gets done.

For above all else, beyond imagination and skill, what the world asks of you is courage, courage to risk rejection, ridicule and failure. As you follow the quest for stories told with meaning and beauty, study thoughtfully but write boldly. Then, like the hero of the fable, your dance will dazzle the world.”
