T S AguilarT.S. Aguilar is a writer and published author of novels and literary non-fiction. His maxim is best expressed by quoting George Orwell, "When I sit down to write a book, I do not say to myself, 'I am going to produce a work of art.' I write it becaus there is some lie I want to expose, some fact to which I want to draw attention, and my initial concern is to get a hearing."This maxim holds true for all his works since he started writing novels in the 1990s after a brief stint in journalism. His writing of books was interrupted by writing screenplays, producing documentary videos, and making a living as a teacher in Latin America, the Middle East, Europe, and Canada. His passion for writing a book was rekindled when his wife was diagnosed and succumbed to cancer. He took copious notes of her failed therapies, investigated cancer treatment, and produced a literary non-fiction work about it. He obeyed her last wish to write novels again and produced two works that have received international acclaim. Read More Read Less
