C.E. Lemieux Jr. is an avid fan of fiction. "Fiction books let us visit places we may never see, meet people we may never know, and experience things we will never do. They allow the mind to work and play at the same time. Through fiction, I’ve traveled the streets of Italy with John Grisham. I’ve spent warm summers on a Carolina beach with Nicholas Sparks. I’ve been twisted by the tales of James Patterson and Tom Clancy. I’ve ridden the dusty trails of the old west with Louis L’Amour and Larry McMurtry. Whether writing them or reading them, fiction books are the magic ticket to a journey which will enrich our minds and stretch our imaginations." In addition to reading and writing fiction, C.E. is a fan of baseball, high school football, fishing, and camping. A husband and father of four, his family makes their home in the Oklahoma Panhandle where several of his stories are set.
