Garry Owen is the webmaster of BOOKiWROTE. He has worked in various senior software development roles for more than a decade but has also pursued web and software development as an interest for over 40 years. He is a fun-loving father of 3 boys, and a husband. For almost the same reason he fell in love with the art of computer coding, he also found a passion for writing. At the age of 9 years old, Garry had his first computer as a birthday gift and fell in love with the art and creativity of computer coding. He found it enabled him to create characters, game worlds, and other magical features, only limited by the depths of his imagination. Likewise, writing for Garry opened the door to the same wonderful universe of imagination, and with him sat at the helm, the ability to navigate and explore under his complete and unhindered control. Garry has also written many books about coding for the web where he utilises his decades of knowledge to allow his readers to avoid all of the pitfalls and mistakes he had to overcome on his journey. Today and for many years now, Garry works as part of an IT software development team. His passion for coding far extends his work life and has been a meaningful interest of his, for most of his life. Further, Garry also loves photography, image manipulation, and crafting 3d and 4d imagery using 3d and 4d image rendering packages. If he were to summarise his passions, Garry would tell you 'Creativity'. One of his favourite quotes sums up the driving force behind his passions. "Everything you can imagine is real." - Pablo Picasso.
