Mr. Laurence A. St. John was born on January 11, 1965 in Toledo Ohio. Laurence has one older brother and two younger sisters. Mr. St. John along with his parents, brother and sisters moved once while growing up to Genoa Ohio, just south of Toledo. While attending Genoa Area schools, Mr. St. John was active in track, football and baseball. Later, after he graduated from Genoa High School (Comets) in 1983, he worked for a few manufacturing companies.
At the age of 23 and after three years of dedication, hard work and sweat, in 1988, Mr. St. John received his first-degree black belt (Shodan) in Tae Kwon Do. This gave him the self-confidence and perseverance needed to surmount anything that came his way.

When Mr. St. John was 25 years old he fell in love then married the love of his life, Julie in 1990. Mr. St. John adopted her two young wonderful children Joe and Jan shortly after.
Out of high school for nearly fifteen years and after persuaded by his former manager, Mr. St. John attended Owens State Community College where he obtained an Associates Degree in Microcomputer Business Systems while working full-time. In addition to computer classes, he enjoyed composition classes where he could free his mind and write what he wanted.
While working in the steel processing business for almost fifteen years, Mr. St. John’s place of employment changed hands, for the third time in 2006; fighting for his job, again. In the same year his first granddaughter, Kendall, “Papa’s Angel” was born. Mr. St. John described this as one of the most uplifting moments of his life. In addition, it was during this time when his emotions were running wild; he became inspired as well as determined to write his penned-up thoughts on paper.
Nearly four years later, he had completed his first MG/Teen fantasy novel, Metatron: The Angel Has Risen. The second novel in the series, Metatron: The Mystical Blade is also available on paperback and Kindle eBook. Laurence is currently working on book 3 in the METATRON SERIES.
Mr. St. John currently lives in Northwood Ohio with his wife of 28 years, Julie. His son Joe is married to his wife Cari who have three daughters, Kendall, Sadie and Harper. His daughter Jan is married to her husband Andrew who has a son Elijah and a daughter Evelyn. Laurence currently holds the position of Administrations Manager at Precision Strip, Inc. in Perrysburg Ohio, where he works full time. He continually writes in his spare time; weekends and after work, and is endlessly inspired by his five grand kids Kendall, Eli, Sadie, Evelyn and Harper.

Quotes by Laurence St. John (?)

“What I'm going to do," the doctor continued, "is take my modified, time-released Dewrilium and market it as a new Varicella vaccine. My original plan was to do something wonderful for the world, out of the goodness of my heart, but Devon and Eli convinced me to take my idea to the next level.”
― Laurence St. John, Metatron: The Angel Has Risen

“stuff is so challenging. There is always some type of crime happening in the world. I have to lie to my mom and other people about what I do at night. I have regular school plus college courses. I'm involved in taekwondo. I have chores and I have a girlfriend." "Yes, Kendall can be pretty demanding," Lukas replied chuckling. "Shut up. I'm being serious!”
― Laurence St. John, Metatron: The Mystical Blade
