Richard Elsliger is an automotive fiction author in Chicago, Illinois who writes at every available opportunity. He grew up in the east end of Toronto, an area known as a hotbed of muscle cars throughout the 60s, 70s, and 80s. He remembers his father’s ’32 Ford hotrod that was stored in the backyard as key element in his childhood. Richard’s automotive passion manifests itself in his fictional horror stories about cars and the characters who drive them include the titles Road Closed, Transfusion, and Drag Lake. You’ll find his stories, in their ebook format, on Amazon’s kindle website. Richard also has his own line of automotive inspired clothing, Tread Heart.
