    Paul Andrews

    Paul Andrews has been creating novels, novellas and short stories for over twenty years. Though his heart lies with historical fiction, he also dabbles in science fiction, horror, and even a little romance. The "The Man Who Would Not Die," based on the life of Count Saint-Germain, was first novel. He also writes a popular Blog on his website, on Lost and Forgotten History still relevant today. Paul has a graduate degree from Rutgers University and spent many successful years in his 'day job' as a biotech R&D project manager. After working for a time in the ivory towers of Manhattan and Washington D.C, he slowly migrated south to warmer climes and a slower pace of life. He now works, lives and writes in North Carolina with his wife and two cats.
