Who is Alexander Chase? Or perhaps the question should be, when is Alexander Chase? Xander is lost in time and time is running out as he sifts through his own present, past, and future as well as the greater time-continuum for the meaning of life before his is finally snuffed out.
Aurelio O’Brien grew up in a blended family with seven siblings in the ideal suburbia of Sunnyvale, California.
With an aerospace engineer for a father and a family full of odd, creative, assertive, and clever siblings, there was no end to the fun and madness, and so, no shortage of material to later draw upon as a creative artist and writer.
Aurelio’s own odd mix of talents and interests led him to a successful career as an illustrator, animator, and graphic designer. In his mid-forties, he began a literary career as well with his first novel, EVE. This was soon followed by GENeration eXtraTERrestrial, I Was a Teenage Cheerleader, Family Trees, and finally, Forth & Back.
