Eric Gansworth - Onondaga author

Eric is one of my friends from High School. Yes, we managed to make it through. He's a great writer, and even though he looks a bit menacing in his website photo ;) he's really not. But he surprises you (in a good way) when he recites his work. Very powerful speaker. His books are wonderful as far as I am concerned. He's been really great to me too--writing me a letter of rec last year for the "Fulbright" (I can actually say that word now...)(I should have taken your advice Eric, with respect to the manuscript--I think the other advice I got was not as well-informed---however---onward). One thing that was funny about that, was that he wrote in his letter an opinion of me that was surprising. I never knew he felt that way about me, but it was a good thing. Really nice. Anyway, he's a great poet, writer of fiction, and a painter as well. I like seeing someone succeed in all these arenas.
