About Charles I. Guarria
As a freelance writer, I cover human-interest stories, interview politicians, folk in art & entertainment, dignitaries, business owners, attend store openings, primarily in the towns of Daytona Beach, Deltona, and Port Orange, Florida, though I will go anywhere for the story. I am rewriting my second book, a novel about a musician.
As a former librarian, I wrote Proposition 13: America’s Second Great Tax Revolt, a book that details library economics. I have published in scholarly journals and am a three-time winner of Emerald Group Publishing’s Highly Commended Award.
