EJ Ruek, the Author and the Fiction
E. J. Ruek’s fiction is populated with people — people like the neighbor next door or maybe someone down the block. E. J. writes about things that can happen, could happen, will happen, and might happen, depending on choices made and the whims of circumstance.
E. J. Ruek is a contemporary mainstream writer who also dabbles in speculation. But there’s humor, too, and it sneaks into the words, even seeping through the cracks between the words. Slipped in between the lines are certain sleights…of tongue that will keep you wondering if the meaning is really edging toward innuendo or even triple entendre.
Regardless, E. J. gives us mind-twisting and evocative glimpses into the human…and maybe not-so-human psyches. Says E. J., “Writing is about translating life into words without sacrificing the grimace and the giggle.”
