About the Author
J. R. Bouchard was born in Providence, Rhode Island, on April 3, 1982, at the Women and Infants Hospital. At the age of twelve, he and his family of four moved from Pawtucket, Rhode Island, down to Pinellas County, Florida, in 1994 to live closer near his grandparents on his mother’s side, leaving all friends and his family on his father’s side up north. As he grew up in the large suburbs of Largo, JR was a young man of many talents, which included drawing, technology, and skateboarding. He was friends with one of the neighborhood boys before he also moved away to live with his father in Hillsborough County. JR lost his father three days after his seventeenth birthday to suicide and later fell into a slum. When his mother remarried, he defied his stepfather’s plea to join the military. After a few months of not doing as his stepfather asked, JR rebelled, which in turn made his stepfather so angry he threw JR to the streets just after his eighteenth birthday. He made his way through life going through trials and tribulation that sent him spending some time in and out of the jail system, before JR decided it was time to grow up. With no education and just finding out he was to be a father, JR was thrown back in jail due to a bad choice in a lifelong partner. He spent 113 days in the highest level of security in the Pinellas County Jail. Instead of falling into the jail lifestyle, JR decided to spend his time reading books. After not finding any that he enjoyed, he sat down one day and used his creative knack to create The Plan and create a better way of life than going down the wrong path. However, soon after being released from jail, JR was back to square one, not having any place to live and no way of getting work. Therefore, he entered a homeless facility designed to help the less fortunate. As he continued writing his book and living in this program, he was able to purchase his publishing but in turn was thrown back to the streets by the facilitator because he was not focusing on getting a nine-to-five job. Now almost finishing his story, he is still homeless and trying to get his son back by finishing his eight-book series of the Plan saga.
