Z GOTTLIEB

Throughout my whole life I have been a voracious reader, from sci-fi to mystery, fantasy to adventures, there was nothing that I did not read. Eventually there comes a point in every reader’s life where they get the bright idea to write a story. In 2013, I had an idea for a short story, and proceeded to write it down. As I started to write, the story developed beyond what I had initially imagined, and the exploration led to the creation of my first novel, “Connor’s Gambit”. I found that, while writing my novel, I had a sincere passion for writing. This website is dedicated to that passion and the stories that follow.
