His journey through New England - from the coastal charm of Cape Cod to the suburban landscapes of Western Massachusetts, culminating in Northern Connecticut - has been a path of relentless self-discovery and transformation. Evolving from an avid consumer of stories in all forms, including books, TV, and movies, to a passionate writer, driven by a desire to bring to life the classic narratives he finds missing in today's literary world.In his debut novel, "I Never Knew I Needed You," set against the nostalgic backdrop of the 1990s, Andy rejuvenates the coming-of-age story as the book introduces readers to a protagonist who is unexpectedly thrust back into his youth, where he must navigate through the complexities and unresolved moments he had left behind. This novel approach to the journey toward adulthood underscores LaPlante's commitment to delving into life's intricacies and its inherent unpredictability.His writing pulls from many different places, mixing the wild ideas of science fiction with the real, down-to-earth stories we see in everyday life. This mix makes his writing rich and full of surprises, reflecting the wide range of stories that have caught his eye over the years.He writes with the hope of bringing readers into the worlds he creates, sharing stories as deep and varied as the ones that have inspired him. He believes in the magic of storytelling to shine a light on the many sides of being human.lihat lebih sedikit
