SIDELIGHTS:

Roy L. Griffin told CA: "By age fourteen, I had earned a black belt in kung fu, and by age fifteen I was teaching in my own martial arts school. I later became a five-time Florida state sport karate champion. At age seventeen I dropped out of school and obtained my GED. I began investing in real estate at age twenty-seven, and still serve as a real estate consultant. The pursuit of my dreams—acting, and a passion for arts and the theater—is what has led me to writing fiction. My writings in nonfiction include real-estate investing and martial arts. Through my writing, I have worked to instill good moral values in our children and in people across the country. Ever the hopeless romantic, I love to write poetry and romance."
