Leu Seyer, the pen name of Miguel A. Reyes-Mariano, son of the deceased Civil Engineer Sansón Reyes Castillo, and the Literacy Teacher, Cosmetologist, Dressmaker, and Entrepreneur Tomasa Mariano Sosa. He wrote a script for theater at the age of twelve. "In Duarte's homeland," a piece in three acts where three block-layers deliberate about going to the United States in the Malecon of Santo Domingo. He was in the 7th grade at the Colegio Dominicano de La Salle and still remembers that his teacher, Diomedes Christopher Sánchez, today dean of the Business School at INTEC University, told him that he writes very delicately. He explained that theater dialogues were less elaborate and suggested writing a novel. Miguel started that novel, "The Human Pout," but he never finished it because his father told him that "no one would read it if he didn't use plain language." In the school year of 1977-78, for Mr. Manuel Matos' literature class, he wrote a 70-page short story, "The Bus Back Home." A tale of two young high school seniors lost in a bus transfer within the public transportation system of the Dominican Republic in 1978 and ended up getting to know parts of the city that they never imagined existed.Read more about this authorRead less about this author
