About the Author
A GRADUATE OF the Pennsylvania State University (M.Ed.), Edinboro University of Pennsylvania (B.A.), and the Art Institute of York-PA (B.S.), Joshua Holmes has studied the fine arts, design, and writing for over 20 years. He concentrates in the areas of graphic design, portraiture and wildlife, has been commissioned by numerous collectors within the community, and has won several awards in various shows and fairs. He has authored eight novels - Memory Lapse, Grand Mal, Seizure, Status, Design To Kill, Design For Justice, Shattered Lung, and Design To Escape.
He attributes his success to the Lord, and the strength God gives him in order to persist and grow as a more patient and thorough artist and writer. Despite a vision cut in both eyes from a failed brain surgery for Epilepsy, with the Lord's help, Josh continues to write, to see more and more detail, and hopes to improve with time.
He encourages you to explore and exercise your creative side, and enjoy what the Lord can do through it.
