Rorry Nighttrain East
 Rorry Nighttrain East a.k.a. R.L. Farr is truly a literary anomaly. He is not the type of author one can typecast or place in a single mode or genre, for his work seems to run the gamut—from poetry to prose, screenplays, teleplays, humor, short stories, even novels.
Born on July 18, 1952 in Fresno, Calif., Nighttrain East is an alumnus of De Anza College in Cupertino, Calif., and worked as an automobile mechanic in San Jose, Calif. Since relocating from the Golden State, he now resides on a ranch where he writes in the beautiful mile-high mountains of Silver City, N.M.
Nighttrain East says that he writes because he’s handicapped (he has two artificial legs), but there’s no limit to what he can do with words. Read him, then re-read him. Laugh, cry…and wipe the tears away. You’ve found yourself the pen pal of a lifetime.

 The Sixth Oath To The Winds:
In one lifetime, we make many oaths. Some of these oaths are made to ourselves-but most of them are made to repair our injured dreams, which were once set upon man’s empty philosophies. Ergo, by the time of your sixth oath to the wind, hopefully, you will find that such narratives were mostly one-sided conversations-if you have not first dared to believe in yourself.
The Sixth Oath to the Winds is also the sixth poetry book written by by Rorry Nighttrain East.Read More
