THE BIO
Domenic Marinelli is a writer, journalist, poet, playwright, essayist, blogger, artist, and former teacher. He is the author of 18 books and thousands of professionally published articles on subjects ranging from automotive technology, sports, politics, crime, food, travel, and even the gaming industry.
Background
Born in Montreal, Quebec, Canada, Domenic Marinelli remembers being quite comfortable within the pages of a book or the reels of a film, thus literature and film indeed became the focal point of his life at a very young age. So much so that his own writing garnered him some attention as early as the age of 10, when one of his stories was published in a school board periodical. He was published again the following year for another story and the year after that, his sixth grade teacher urged his parents to keep a close eye on his writing talent and to allow him to cultivate it further.
After high school, he studied Law & Society at Vanier College and various branches of technology at Rosemount Technology Center in Montreal, but he left both institutions without degree. In 2004, he earned a TOEFL teaching certificate (Teaching of English as a Foreign Language) from the International College of Applied Linguistics at a seminar held at McGill University.
He held a variety of odd jobs over the years as he studied and worked on his writing. He has worked as a video and hardware store clerk, as a shipping and warehouse worker, as a data entry clerk, as a cook, as an English language teacher, and as a dental equipment repair technician. He now writes full-time.
