John Gormally - Cyclist, Writer, Espresso Lover, Blogger

John Gormally, after military service, embarked on a 25-year career in the information technology field, working in various roles in sales, engineering, support, and design. His inspiration for writing came from his business travels to places like Vietnam, China, Japan, Taiwan, and Portugal. A true believer in listening to one’s passion, John began writing in early 2020 based on several trips he made while cycling in various countries. In his debut award-winning novel, “Forever our Sunrise in Saigon,” John draws upon several non-fictional events in Vietnam, including the war with the US, the last days of Saigon falling, and the chaos at the US embassy.

John resides in Oro Valley, Arizona and is currently working on book 3, "Red Scorpion: Rising,' due out February 2026.
