When Cincinnati resident, Ron Houston, first entertained the notion of writing he was a mixologist in one of the city's most notable nightclubs. "There I was standing behind the bar. At a point when every customer had been served, I developed an observing eye, I saw what was really going on in the club and started to really hear the conversations. I thought, somebody ought to write a book about this stuff. After a few moments more, a light came on in my head and in realized, 'Why don't I write it?' (oh, did I mention I'm kinda slow?). I studied writing technique for three years then produced my first collection of short stories, Tales From the Satellite. In one month it became a local bestseller."Educated in Organic Chemistry and working full time as a lab technician, this licensed certified mixologist, was now an author and owner of GorillaWorks Publishing. Next he wrote the shock novel, The Devastation of Mr. Drake, and gain strong book club support. "I really appreciate all the support I've gotten from my readers," says the author of these strange stories, Ron Houston. "I realize my writing is not for everyone, but I'm pleasantly surprised at the number of fans I've reached. When I give my books to one of my proudest fans, my mom, I make sure it's bound in plastic never to be read. I don't want her to need therapy over the thoughts that come out of her baby boy's warped mind."
