Novels and Short Stories by John B. Rosenman

Books

Why do I write fiction? Well, ever since I was a small boy, I’ve made up stories. I’ve just always done it. Sometimes I’m inspired to do it because of events in my life. For example, in the picture above, I’m holding my novel The Merry-Go-Round Man, a coming-of-age story based on my childhood. More often, though, I imagine alternate worlds and universes, places that never will be and mind-blowing concepts that challenge the reader.  Just check out the books below to see what I mean.
