Raymond M. Towers


Biography

About the author: Raymond M. Towers is an aspiring author of Mexican-American descent, although the term Chicano describes him much more accurately. He was born in 1970 in San Diego, California, and from an early age showed an interest in becoming a great storyteller. In fact, he was drawing and distributing his own crude comic books, using pencil and blank paper, as far back as the fourth grade.
Alas, life happens, and due to both circumstance and procrastination, Raymond set his ambitions on the back burner for many years. While he did enjoy mild success in his submissions to literary markets, he felt he could improve his talents considerably by concentrating on his writing, and for the last decade has made every effort to produce a polished and complete product.
Now in his early forties, the author, finally, is ready to share his vision with the world.
