Ivan’s first published work, The Dark Room, is a Fiction Novel loosely based on his life growing up in the favelas, or slums, of Brazil.Favorite quote: “In life, incredible things happen and unforgettable moments do exist; but nothing compares to having been loved by you, and though you rest in peace, I will miss and love you always.”If you would like to learn more about Ivan King, you can send him a message at:http://www.ivanking.com/
