"What I focus upon becomes reality. I have the power to choose."
A Southern California courtroom professional
who retired to write, grow roses and lake-paddle in his red canoe.
Richard Lee Orey is a former official court reporter of the United States District Court and of the California Superior Court with 38 years of daily courtroom
trial experience. Also a lawyer, he writes fiction to express his passions and to let readers eavesdrop on true and forbidden happenings of life.
Despite and beyond this platform of experience, Richard is a hopeless romantic and feels blessed beyond belief.

Like the kid he is sometimes, Richard savors the memory that in his high school days he was a state champion finalist in track (the 800 meter run). In today's world, he remains vigorous, involved, athletic and a lover of life. Watch for his bright red canoe on nearby lakes.
