Author Steve Ives Book Presentation and Signing for Even After Always
Steven Ives was born in the Bronx. After spending his early childhood in New York City, his family moved to Fair Lawn, New Jersey, where he spent his early adolescence. After reading far too much beatnik literature in his teenage years, Steven took off at age twenty, armed with a mostly broken-down car, an already obsolete typewriter, and maybe the best cassette tape collection on earth, in the vague but idealistic hope of discovering the meaning of life and writing the Great American Novel. He spent the better part of the next decade driving around the continent, occasionally settling down in places as disparate as Colorado, Oregon, California, Iowa, Florida, and Montana. He got in a lot of trouble and somehow always managed to get out of it. He wrote tens of thousands of pages, which he hopes mattered at some point to someone. In his thirties, Steven returned to New York City. Years later, he’s still there. Currently, he lives and bartends in Greenpoint, Brooklyn, and still writes a ton. He’s working on a new novel he’d love to talk your ear off about. Anyway, that’s Steven’s past and present. As for the future? Well, time is a curved line and, after all, anything can happen.
