Joshua Corin | My Ten Commandements for Being an Artist
November 7, 2010
The bookshelves at your local brick-and-mortar bookstores are teeming with how-to-write manuals. For the young fiction writer, there are classics such  Read More...

Joshua Corin grew up in Warwick, RI, where he wrote his first short story, a seriocomic missive about a young vampire with a loose tooth, at the age of 8. His first professional success came in 2001 when his feature-length script Windfall won first place in the Open Door Contest co-sponsored by Dimension Films. This helped to secure him an agent and manager, and they in turn assisted in getting his first novel, the screwball thriller Nuclear Winter Wonderland, published with Kunati Books. Nuclear Winter Wonderland later went on to be named by Booklist as one of the top ten debut crime novels of the year.

His next novel, While Galileo Preys, was the first in a series for MIRA Books about Long Island housewife-crimefighter Esme Stuart. Both it and its sequel Before Cain Strikes were optioned by 20th Century Fox TV.

Subsequently, he launched the Xanadu Marx series for Penguin Random House, beginning with Cost of Life and continuing, buoyed by rave reviews, with Forgive Me and American Lies. Around this time, he also delved into video essays, with several of his videos topping over 1,000,000 views, and into writing comics for Marvel.

Realizing that none of his dark, visceral crime novels were appropriate reading material for his nieces and nephews, he tailored his seventh novel, Assume Nothing, more to their semi-sunnier sensibilities. It is available now from Thomas & Mercer.

When not writing, Joshua can be found teaching literature and composition at the Corwin-Russell School, entertaining his cat Princess Tater Tot, and desupplying his refrigerator of its chocolates.
