About Me
-
Describe Yourself:Aaron Paul Lazar lives on a ridge overlooking the Genesee Valley in upstate New York with his wife, mother-in-law, and cat. Recent "empty-nesters," Aaron and Dale have been fixing up their 1811 antique home after twenty-five years of kid and puppy wear. Daughters Jennifer, Melanie, and Allison live close by, and weekends now feature sleepover parties for grandsons Julian and Gordon.
Aaron works as an electrophotographic engineer at Eastman Kodak Company, in Rochester, New York, but his true passion lies in writing. While currently working on his thirteenth novel, he also enjoys gardening; cooking family feasts; photography, cross-country skiing, classical music, and French Impressionist art. Although he adored raising his delightful daughters, he finds grandfathering his "two little buddies" one of life's finest experiences.
In addition to receiving publishing contracts for DOUBLE FORTE', UPSTAGED, TREMOLO: CRY OF THE LOON, MAZURKA, HEALEY'S CAVE, and ONE POTATO,BLUE POTATO, Aaron writes "Seedlings," a monthly column featured in the Futures Mystery Anthology Magazine (FMAM) and the Mysteryfiction.net literary newsletter "Voice in the Dark." His articles on writing have appeared in Absolute Write,and his essay, "Word Paintings" was included in the 2007 Bylines Writers' Desk Calendar. Check out the Great Mystery and Suspense Magazine for the flash fiction piece, "Follow the Leader" and visit his blogs at www.murderby4.blogspot.com and www.aaronlazar.blogspot.com.

Aaron, I just wanted to say that I just couldn't relate to the name; in fact, I thought it was someone from another country, not American. I am not at all religious, and the combination of nothing familiar about the name and being a preacher almost made me not want to read it at all. Maybe that's just a reflection of my taste. If you had used the first name with something generic (Johnson, Smith, etc), it would have been more comfortable for me or moving it away from the first paragraph, and it is less jarring, and I can live with is. It just seems that opening your story, you want to have things readers can relate to. I am not telling you to change the name or your story...just my reaction. When I begin a story, I like something I can relate to.
