The Wrath of Gaia

John C. Morris has never accepted anything simply because it is the norm. Morris admits, ＂I have enjoyed so many different careers, and seen so much of the world in the process, they seem like separate lifetimes. I always wanted to be a folk/rock star, because I have always been driven to tell stories of peoples lives and loves, by writing lyrics. Whilst being very good at playing a 12-string acoustic guitar, I could not sing to save my life. Over time, I discovered I could write, poems and short stories first, and then novels.＂ Born in England and living in China since 2004, he has held numerous positions, from the ten years he spent as a police officer specializing in serious fraud, to entrepreneur and world trader, to writer. Early on he qualified as a yacht master for sailing vessels. Married to a supportive (and long-suffering) Cantonese woman, Morris is father to their young daughter. Although he and his wife do not share a language, they communicate exceptionally well. Morris writes about his cross cultural experiences on his web site, www.china-expats.com. He has also designed the web site for a company formation agency. Morris draws on his eclectic life experiences in his writing (author website). Having finished Fractured, a mystery espionage thriller, Morris is at work on the final publishing stages of Star Gazer Trilogy, a contemporary work of science fantasy/science fiction.
