edit data

Gerry Pelser is a photographer and writer living in the suburbs of Johannesburg, South Africa, with his wife, Andrea, (who he adores, and who is always right), two super-cool Hungarian Puli puppies, and a stuffed baby petite hippo named Felicity.

He is passionate about story-telling, teaching, and absolutely infatuated with photographic lighting. He spends way too much time on social media, and has an unhealthy obsession with beer, chicken wings, and cricket.

Gerry Pelser liked Lezzet Abbott's review of Defining Giulia: "Defining Guilia is a courageous tale of becoming. A visually enchanting story of the gift of what life entails; heart-breaking challenges of discovering young identity, the steely realm of superficial materialism, depth (and shallowness) of character" Read more of this review »

Gerry Pelser liked Douglas Williamson's review of Discovering Leigh.: "Our heroine is shy and just not sure what she is looking for. So when she stumbles upon a shibari master willing to teach her, she discovers more than she expected. This is first and foremost a romance, and perhaps a coming of age story, with BDSM as " Read more of this review »

I have just re-read this book, after it gathered dust on my shelf for many years since my first read. It is just phenomenal. the early writing of King at his best. I can only wax lyrical about this work, the content, the style, the odd joke... yeah, ...more

It was an interesting story, to be sure, but at times it felt incohesive, and I had to re-read certain chapters to "get it". The premise is quite brilliant, but found the timelines (deliberately?) obtuse, and the character development a bit superfici ...more
