RM Garino

R.M. Garino has taught Literature and Writing for a number of years as an adjunct professor at university, and for over twenty years in a large metropolitan school system. He has been writing and telling stories, however, for most of his life. Since childhood, he has been fascinated with what The Story is, how it functions, and the different masks it wears. Several degrees in Literature, and a career in teaching later, and that fascination still remains.

The stories also remain, queuing up and waiting for their turn to be told. 

His fascination with all types of literature can be found in many of the characters in his novels and short stories. His first novel, The Gates of Golorath (2017), begins the Chaos of Souls series, which reimagines the war in Heaven, and tells of the time before human history began. His second, shorter novel, The Bridges of Raqui (2017), tells of an even earlier time, just after the punishment of the fallen angels began. 

Garino is known for writing crisp, character driven stories that read almost like viewing a film. His world creation is vast and far reaching, yet his prose is organic and devoid of informational dumps that mar the story. The characters are real, believable, and inspire both affection and compassion in the reader. 

R.M. Garino lives on the east coast with his wife, three children, and all the characters still waiting their turn to speak.
