Sandor Stern

Sandor Stern wrote his first short story at age 14, won his first short story contest while an undergrad at the University of Toronto and sold his first television drama while attending medical school. For five years following graduation he balanced a medical practice with writing drama and variety shows for the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation. Giving up his practice he moved to Los Angeles where he began a successful career as a writer of numerous TV episodic series including "Ironsides" and "The Mod Squad" (nominated for a WGA award) and more than thirty television and cable TV movies (many of which he directed and/or produced). His feature film screenplay credits include the original "Amityville Horror", the comedy, "Fastbreak" (winner of the NAACP Image best screenplay award) and the psychological thriller, "Pin", (which he also directed and which continues to gain status as a cult classic).

"The Life And Adventures of Ralph, The Cat" returns him to his early roots in narrative writing. Its genesis was a series of bedtime stories told to his young stepson, Seth. That was over twenty years ago. In recently revisiting Ralph, the intention was to write a short pictorial book for children. One year and two hundred and sixty pages later, he delivers a novel for readers aged seven to ninety-seven. Stuff happens.

"The Karma Chronicles" is a collection of 9 short stories that deal with karmic kickback to a wide range of protagonists.
