You Will Forever Be My Always

Dan McCrory's book, Capitalism Killed the Middle Class: 25 Ways the System is Rigged Against You, is part memoir, part history lesson, part cautionary tale. Dan published his novel You Will Forever Be My Always, to raise awareness about Parkinson's Disease. The book was a winner in the 2022 Los Angeles Book Festival in the wild card category because the judges apparently agreed that the book defies genre and that "literary fiction" seems at least partially descriptive. It has achieved a reputation as a very funny book and, possibly soon, a very funny series. Dan was published in the 2020 anthology of California's Best Emerging Poets and really took it heart. He now has written a poem about everything. He had two scripts reach quarter-finalist status in the NYC International Screenplay Awards. He has written for the glamorous telecom industry, has been a Hollywood publicist, has written political propaganda and advertising copy (yes, there is a difference), and has edited four books. He lives in Southern California. Dan is active in the National Writers Union, formerly as an officer and now as co-chair of the book division. He also volunteers with public radio station KPFK 90.7 FM in Los Angeles as a field producer for the labor program, Working Voices.
