BIOGRAPHICAL SKETCH

Paul Davenport was born in the town of Houlton in northern Maine
on the Canadian border, 100 miles north of Stephen King’s Bangor.
As a boy, his enthusiasm for fishing led him into the deep woods
of Maine in pursuit of the wily brook trout. Those magic hours
instilled in him a love of nature that has remained throughout the
years.
After graduating from college with a major in English, he soon after
moved to Germany, where he’s been living with his wife and family
since 1975.

Paul began to write about fifteen years ago, mainly articles for
journals for EFL (English for Foreign Learners) teachers at first,
then stories for 6th to 9th grade EFL students.
A highlight in his writing career came last year when his story
‘Crossroads to Love’ (a Teen Reader book) became a finalist in the
Extensive Reading Foundation’s choice for reader of the year 2007!
The second highlight came a year later, 2008, when another of his
stories, ‘Horror Trip on the Pecos River’, also a Teen Reader book,
received the same international award.
Paul’s hobbies include reading, table tennis and fishing. He’s still
after those wily brook trout!
