Christopher Gonzales WriterI have published stories in the North American Review and in Stone Canoe. I won the 2014 S.I. Newhouse School Prize for Creative Nonfiction.
About my writingEver since I could remember, I loved words, even imagined life would stop if I couldn't give it words. My father lost his words when I was sixteen and he began showing signs of Alzheimer's. Return of the Lost Son is the story of my father's life told from my point of view, as his son, as I go about a series of encounters with friends and relatives who knew him.
I am working on two new books about families. My blog was posted at the North American Review in 2016. Here's the link: Biography in 25 wordsChristopher Gonzales grew up in Middle Grove, outside of Saratoga Springs, New York. He is now raising a family in the state’s Finger Lakes region.
