Ray Succre 

Ray Succre is 31 and currently lives in Coos Bay, Oregon, a small, coastal town where art is sparse and, when it does exist is of a general relation to driftwood, deer, dying romance, or various maritime subjects. He has tried to leave the town numerous times. He is married, has just become a father, and loves the south coast. He writes each day and is very driven to better himself and his work. In addition to poetry, short stories, and essays, he pretends also to be a novelist and is an avid loiterer in restaurants. He is between dishwasher jobs and is currently a stay-at-home dad, which he loves dearly.  He has published much in the last few years, and is also a winner of the Adroitly Placed Word Award, for spoken word.  He tries hard.
