Biography
Larry F. Slonaker is the author of NOTHING GOT BROKE, a novel in literary fiction, published by Cirque Press. He is a freelance writer of fiction and nonfiction. He worked as a writer and editor at the once-renowned San Jose Mercury News, and the still-renowned Stanford University. There were a few stops at never-renowned places as well. Years ago he had a novel published by Avon. It was re-titled The Voice of the Visitor, bound with a grotesque cover and marketed as a horror novel...which it really wasn’t. He was not using the (seemingly superfluous) middle initial in his name at that time. For more on that, see "Why the F?" on larryslonaker.com He and his wife live on a (very) small ranch in Northern California with a few horses, a few dogs and a few barn cats.

By Larry Slonaker Verified| The Hill Verified I’ll be flying the U.S. flag this Fourth of July outside my house. This will be my small gesture of celebrating Independence Day and, in a larger sense, a demonstration of my patriotism. It’s a custom that might be considered a bit out of character for a lifelong Democrat, since significantly fewer members of my party now describe themselves as patriotic. The most recent polling says so, as does my personal experience with left-leaning friends and relatives all across the country.
By Larry Slonaker Verified| The Guardian Verified We’ve been witnessing a burgeoning obsession in the US lately with the effect ageing has on the human brain. This came to mind again when I was reading about the latest woes of Dianne Feinstein, who may have what’s politely called “cognitive decline”. And of course every time Joe Biden misspeaks, his critics seize on it as a symptom of dementia.
By Larry Slonaker Verified| Hollister Free Lance Verified We know by now that most adults who’ve refused the Covid-19 vaccine will not be budged, no matter what they’re told by science and common sense. They’ve chosen this as their line in the sand—or, for a more apt metaphor, their hill to die on. Fine. While I think it’s a position of ignorance that is potentially devastating to our society, I also recognize there’s little to be done about it.
