The Emerging Work of F. G. Capitanio

"So let my door disclose
to readers what I see, able to take them
to my spirit's home, a weathered hallmark showing
how I live, think, grieve, compose."

F.G. Capitanio is an emerging author, poet, and novelist. A recent Cum Laude graduate of Bridgewater State College, he has a bachelor's degree in History and English. His poetry has won honorable mention in the Utmost Christian Writers Foundation 2006 Poetry Competition. He has been published in the 2006 edition of the Gold Crown Award-winning literary journal The Bridge, the April 2007 edition of SP Quill Quarterly, Apollo's Lyre, the SP Quill 2009 Poetry Anthology and the book Divine Intervention, published by Tharseo Publishing. His first book, a Young Adults murder mystery entitled Mariner's Hollow, has finally made it through the editing phase and is being considered for representation. He's also finished a second novel, which is a comedy of errors by the name of Very Bad Things, and is now working on a suspense novel. He lives on Cape Cod, Massachusetts, where he keeps himself involved in local writer's workshops along with the gratuitous suffering endured at the hands of the obligatory aspiring writer's day job.

News, news, and more news....

Mariner's Hollow is currently in the hands of a mid-sized publisher, which is really exciting, and it's still looking for an agent. The long road of queries and rejections have begun, but it's still exciting! I finished Very Bad Things, my comedy, but it needs a tons of editing still before its ready to get sent out. I've also started my third book, Love Thy Neighbor, a real joy to be writing again after a whole lot of editing. Still praying that I won't end up with a pile of books in my desk that aren't published, but I think I'm on the right track...for some reason, I just can't stop myself!
