Fish Farm

Born in The Bronx, NY in 1950, Romano hit the literary scene in 2010 at the age of 60. Having written raw, urban poetry since he was 18, he compiled his works into two books, and a new career was on its way. Drawing from his great response to those books, Anxiety's Nest and Anxiety's Cure, he followed up his newfound passion for writing with his stunning, gruesome mob novel, Fish Farm. Following Fish Farm was the 5-time award-winning for best screenplay, and yet another mobster book, BESA. The recurring characters in this series solidified Romano's dedicated readership. This book, GAME OF PAWNS, is what follows after the shock at the end of BESA. He developed a second series, with new characters Detective Vic Gonnella and Raquel Ruiz in 2012, and has been knocking down doors with his smash hit, INTERCESSION, since transferring his works to Vecchia Publishing. The second book in the Vic Gonnella series, YOU THINK I'M DEAD has just been released, and a third book deal for this series already in the works. Louis Romano's insistence on excellence is shown throughout his other business endeavors in the oil and healthcare industries. He carries this through into his literary career, researching and writing with accuracy to please even the most educated reader on the topic at hand, yet presenting it in such a way that casual readers find themselves easily engrossed as well. While passionate about writing, Romano is also known for his compassion, and fighting for the underdog. He sits on the board of Road-to-Recovery, a non-profit charity that assists victim-survivors of clergy sexual abuse. He also "forces" himself to play golf a lot, most usually with a respectable score, and can be seen at many charitable golf outings. He enjoys spending time with his grandsons, and traveling. Mr. Romano is published by Vecchia Publishing.
