About the author
Keith lives in Swansea, Massachusetts. He has an abiding love and passion for the visual, literary and performing arts. At an early age, he started playing the classical guitar and studying privately with Maestro Joseph Raposo, Sr. (Boston Conservatory of Music) until he was 17. He started writing poetry in high school. Reading, music, storytelling, and movies became singular passions for him, all of which set him on a lifelong path of exploration in creativity.
In the spring of 2014, he began thinking in earnest about what life would be like in the future. Given the fact that civilization would be intact, what would people 500 years from now be like? How would technology change them? What effect would mankind’s aggressive personality traits and competitive, warlike spirit have on the ever-spiraling rush toward scientific mastery over the universe? How much would the practice of scientism effect, even replace, religion as we know it today?
Starting on May 23rd until October 9th of that year, he sat down at his computer on a daily basis and began writing a science fiction/fantasy/thriller about the quest for human immortality that plays itself out in the 26th century. He is planning on writing a trilogy of trilogies, also called an ennealogy. The first trilogy, the Penitent, is completed. It was published in August 2019 by Stillwater River Publications.
