World War Two veteran,
father of four, 91 years young and a freelance writer
and novelist for over sixty years, Elsan H. Stafford
has had a number of poems, short stories and journalistic
pieces published in both regional and national publications
during his long literary career.
Besides having seen his major
tome "The Blue Marionette" previously published
in print, Elsan has penned two other novels, an extensive
short story as well as complete manuscript of poetry
(three of which are published and available on this
web site), and keeps extremely busy assisting his youngest
son in his endeavors to fine-tune and market the many
screenplays he has written. His favorite authors who
have inspired him the most remain Edgar Allan Poe, Thomas
Wolfe, Victor Hugo, Laurence Hope and George Byron,
to name a few. For it is the slice-of-life genre through
which he enjoys writing, and believes that a central
theme and moral conclusion are essential to a poem or
story’s success.
