Bradley Pilon

Bradley is a recent arrival into the writing community. Having spent thirty-five years working as a Bilingual School Psychologist in Los Angeles City School District, he focused primarily on preparing accurate Psychoeducational Student Evaluations, sometimes fascinating, but almost always dry. He hid his REAL self behind careful clinical descriptions of others. At the age of 71, Bradley began writing memoire and became his own subject of scrutiny. The discovery if self through the re-telling of old stories within his personal memory bank started him on the path to finding the person he is today. He challenged the inner child to clearly reveal the old fears and distorted thinking that underlay his character foundation. His inner child’s voice was persistent, and used to control Bradley’s thinking. Gratefully, his adult conscience was eventually able to take control of his truth. For him, writing memoir is about becoming the person who oversees both self-discovery and self-invention.  .
