Richard Lee Orey is a former official court reporter of the United States District Court and of the California Superior Court with 26 years of daily courtroom trial experience. Also a lawyer, he writes fiction to express his passions and, additionally, to let readers eavesdrop on true and forbidden happenings of life that burst out of secrecy from closed-to-the public judicial sessions dealing with the criminal acts of murderers, racketeers, and violent and seductive predators. "Knowledge of what these cancerous agents of society do and how they do it better enables us
all to protect ourselves and our loved ones."
Birth Place: Salem, OR USA
Accomplishments: A law school recipient of the American Jurisprudence Award and of a Letter of Commendation by the Mayor of the City of San Diego for community leadership.
Richard Lee Orey has appeared as keynote speaker in over two hundred law-related continuing education seminars and as guest lecturer in trial and discovery procedures for numerous professional and educational institutions, including the University of San Diego School of Law and the California Western University School of Law, and is a corporate founder and former officer of the California Court Reporters Association.
Like the kid he is sometimes, Richard still relishes the memory that long ago in his high school days he was a state champion finalist in track (the 800 meter run). He remains quite athletic. Watch for his bright red canoe on nearby lakes!
GREETING AND PERSONAL MESSAGE FROM RICHARD LEE OREY:
=========================================================================================================================================================
Welcome to my Author's Den site.
Though some of my postings here are in the nature of educational material, my most treasured offerings are those that stir your emotions and touch your heart and, perhaps, influence your life. One of my favorites is my short-short story You and Me, a pastiche based on my own life lifted from my sizzling psychological drama novel The Paradise of Revenge. Another favorite is A Lovely Rose, which describes the passion I felt upon meeting the Love of My Life at the age of fourteen, the young woman to whom I have now been married fifty-six years. In my readings of the stirring song The Story of My Life and my heartfelt original poem If, you will hear for yourself how this glorious woman has enraptured my soul.
On a spiritual level, my poem Mother Teresa is the product of awakening at four o'clock in the morning with the sudden urgent calling to write something memorable about this saintly woman. The thousands of "hits" on this piece tell me my writing time was well spent. About one poem, Be Still and Hear My Voice, I measure its success and importance by the dozens of personal e-mailed messages I have received sharing with me how it has calmed their troubled spirit in the face of their wandering faith.
Sadly, many women have contacted me about my poetic haiku, Begin Again, Ab Initio, sharing their despair that they felt they could not go on with life after having been discarded by their lover and partner of many years, citing with gratitude the solace and guidance and renewed confidence this poem has given them. I suggest it is a proper companion to follow your reading of my short story, Crooked Woman Fool.
Unless you're too timid, click on two excerpts from my sizzling psychological drama novel The Paradise of Revenge. (You'll find the Excerpts listed under Short Stories on this biography page.) If you're game to enjoy a laugh on politicians and their prostitutes, click on my kinky poem, The Surrogate Lover. But if you, dear reader, feel alone and abandoned in life, I invite you to share a moment of inspiration by listening to the word of God in my reading of the poem It Will Be Me. Perhaps your faith will be renewed.
Lastly, my article The Perfect Lover! reveals how I and most writers feel about the question we are so often asked: "Why Do You Write?" In response to that question, my beautiful writer/friend Deborah Jeanne Munson says, "My pen is the power in my hand to make love to the world around me." We share this common belief.
Enjoy your visit here, my friend. In my writings, I share myself with you.
Sincerely yours,
Richard Lee Orey
