Autorenporträt

Author J.R. Egles was born on November 23, 1949 in Elizabeth, New Jersey to Marie and Bob Egles. He was the eldest of four children. Other than a three-year period from ages nine to twelve when the family lived in Hialeah, Florida, Joe was a lifelong New Jersey resident. From an early age, Joe developed a fascination of astronomy. Joe ground his own telescope lens from a big thick circular piece of glass about the diameter of a dinner plate. Day after day, he spent endless hours in the basement of his familys home grinding it with rouge. When it was finished, he installed the lens in a large telescope that he built himself from scratch. Joes father set a pipe in concrete in the backyard to serve as a mount for the telescope. Joe was also an avid photographer whose favorite subjects were, of course, the stars and planets. With that telescope, Joe was able to combine his passions for astronomy and photography by capturing amazing photos of the moon, planets and constellations. The one thing that surpassed even his obsession for astronomy, however, was his enduring love of ham radio. At a very young age, Joe joined the close-knit community of hams when a neighbor introduced him to this unique world of communication. When the sky was clear, Joe would spend the entire night out in the backyard gazing upward. When it was cloudy, he would retreat inside where hed chat with folks all over the world on his ham radio. Back then, his ham call letters were WB2UXJ, and he could be heard calling, This is Whiskey, Bravo, 2, Uniform, X-ray, Japan throughout the night. Later, after receiving what is known as an Extra Class license, the call letters became K2UX (and the mantra became King, 2, Uncle, X-Ray). It was the pre-Internet version of online chatting. Therefore, we should not be surprised that The Kabrini Message combines both of Joes loves: outer space and communication. Joe graduated from Governor Livingston Regional High School in Berkeley Heights, New Jersey. This was not the high school most residents of his home town of Garwood attendedJoe hand-selected the school because it offered electives in electronics. After graduating from high school, Joe attended Union County College. Joe wrote The Kabrini Message in Loveladies, New Jersey in 1987 over the course of about six months. At the time, Joe was serving as a full-time, live-in caretaker of another Joe, his elderly grandfather. Joe most recently lived in Ship Bottom, New Jersey with his wife, Gwen. He was a father of three and a grandfather of four. In January, 2010 Joe passed away at the age of 60. Although he wrote a few short stories and did some freelance writing for a local newspaper, The Kabrini Message was his first and only novel. The Kabrini Message was an idea 25 years ahead of its time, and there is no doubt that Joe is very pleased that his novels time has finally arrived! Discover more about J.R.
