Here's my Personal Bio and a few highlights of writing projects with which I've created and/or contributed.
Born on the East Coast town of Havre de Grace, Maryland, where the Susquehanna River meets the Chesapeake Bay, “Dominic” Raymond D. Del Rio then grew up in La Verne, CA, a suburb of Los Angeles located in the San Gabriel Valley, the next town over from San Dimas, the home of Bill and Ted. Relocating to Silicon Valley in 1996, Dominic eventually fell in love with the natural terrain surrounding Morgan Hill and Gilroy, (the “Garlic Capital of the World”), a peaceful and scenic region in the foothills of the Santa Cruz Mountains. He has occasionally spent time in Appalachia and South Central Florida.
